Where: Petco Park, San Diego
When: 3:40 p.m.
TV; radio: SPSO; 680, 93.7, 106.7
Probable starting pitchers: Braves RH Julio Teheran (8-6, 4.44) vs. RH Tyson Ross (8-9, 3.40 ERA)
What's new: Teheran won his last road start on Aug. 2 in Philadelphia, limiting the Phillies to two runs in seven innings, and hopes to continue the trend. For most of the year. it's been a struggle away from Turner Field (6-1, 2.44 ERA at home vs. 2-5, 6.75 ERA on the road). Teheran may have turned a corner though, with the Braves winning his past three starts while he's gone 2-0 with a 2.75 ERA. Cameron Maybin homered against his old teammates Monday night to join Hank Aaron and Kelly Johnson as the only Atlanta Braves to record at least two hits and one extra-base hit in five consecutive games. Maybin's homer Monday gave him a career-high 10 and he leads the Braves with 52 RBIs.
