Tuesday’s game: Braves at Red Sox

Probable starting pitchers: Braves RH Julio Teheran (4-2, 4.78 ERA) vs. LH Wade Miley (5-6, 5.07)

What's new: Teheran is facing the Red Sox for the first time but he'll face some familiar foes, though, in Hanley Ramirez (0-for-4), Pablo Sandoval (3-for-9), Shane Victorino (1-for-4), and Jeff Bianchi (0-for-3). Teheran has gone 2-2 with a 4.30 ERA in six games of interleague play in his career. Pitching at Fenway brings its own unique challenges and already Teheran has struggled on the road this year, going 1-2 with a 6.94 ERA in seven starts. He has given up 10 home runs in 36 1/3 innings on the road. By comparison, Teheran is 3-0 with a 2.77 ERA in six starts at Turner Field, where he has given up just three home runs in 39 innings. Jace Peterson entered the series having hit in eight straight games since returning to the lineup after two days off to nurse a sore thumb. Peterson was 15-for-35 (.429) with five multi-hit games, four doubles, a home run and five RBIs over the streak.
