How the game was won: Julio Teheran was great Wednesday afternoon. He tied a career high with 11 strikeouts while allowing three runs over seven innings.
But Dodgers starter Mike Bolsinger was better, allowing one unearned run on just three hits while striking out four over his seven innings.
Los Angeles scored all three of its runs in the fifth. Yasmani Grandal began the inning with a double to deep right. Alberto Callaspo singled him in, Jimmy Rollins doubled in Callaspo and Joc Pederson singled in Rollins.
Cameron Maybin knocked in Atlanta’s only run on a groundout in the third, scoring Andrelton Simmons.
Number: 4. The Braves' series win against the Dodgers is their fourth in their last five home series. They've won 10 of their last 15 games at Turner Field.
What's next: Atlanta has the day off Thursday before starting a 10-game road trip in St. Louis on July 24. Manny Banuelos (1-1, 1.08 ERA) is slated to open the series against the Cardinals' Tim Cooney (0-0, 3.33 ERA).
