A seesaw seventh inning really shook this game up, but eventually the seesaw slung the Phillies off of it and the Braves were the ones left on the machine after scoring five runs in the seventh to eventually win 6-5.
Like an old car sputtering to get going on a frigid morning during the Winter, that’s how Julio Teheran has been when it comes to the first inning of games this season. He was once again victimized in the first inning by his opposition and it happened on the very first at-bat as Cesar Hernandez capped off a seven-pitch battle by sending a fastball into the Chop House to give the Phillies the early advantage.
