Atlanta 5, St. Louis 1
The Braves, off of a less than inspiring 2-4 home stand against two of the worst teams in baseball, rolled into St. Louis, with Julio Teheran toeing the rubber. Things didn’t look promising, but this game showed why you can’t get overly excited about any 5 to 10 game stretch.
Julio started off the game like he was shaking off a hangover from getting pounded by the O’s, walking the first two batters he faced. But, a nice running grab by the freshly pedicured Ronald Acuna, Jr. and a couple of flyouts helped him escape any damage. Julio then pitched around a two out double in the second by striking out Miles Mikolas.
