Braves vs. Rockies, August 26, 2019: Game Thread & Discussion
Photo by Rich Schultz/Getty ImagesAt the close of this game, Julio Teheran will hold a rare distinction - he will start his second game of a three-game series. However, the impressiveness of this statistic will be up for debate, as today is merely a make-up game of a snowed-out contest from back in April.
For what it’s worth, he won the first game he pitched against Colorado this season, wayyyyyyyyyyy back on April 8. He will face Tim Melville, whom the Braves have never seen before. In fact, the only batter on the team who has ever faced him is Charlie Culberson, who saw him once back in 2017 - back when Charlie Clutch was still a Dodger.
