Game One of this Three-Piece NL East Feast was cancelled last night due to inclement weather. Well after what transpired on the Bump tonight from both Starting Pitchers why don't they cancel "Get Away Day" on Thursday and we will play two at Citizens Bank later in the 162.

Braves RHP Julio Teheran goes Complete Job allowing just three hits and striking out four allowing no Runs or Free Passes as he gets the "W". The unfortunate Loser in this one Phightin' Phils LHP and Ace Cliff Lee goes Complete Job also allowing eleven hits and a run on a Evan Gattis Bomb in the 4th as the only run to cross the dish all night long. Lee also managed to strike out thirteen Braves Hitters as it was Hit or "Talk to the Braves Hitting Coach" facing Lee tonight.

Yes the Braves managed to get eleven hits off of Lee but didn't do much with any of them leaving some 21 ducks on the pond. What;s more impressive is that Teheran allowed just three hits and was perfect after that as he was three hits away from going perfect. Braves Back Stop Evan Gattis (who made former Braves Back Stop now Yanks Catcher Brian McCann expendable) went 4 for 4 as he hit the game-winning hit a HR.

Teheran moves to 2-1 as Lee falls to 1-2...with the Braves at 10-4 and the Phils dropping to 6-8...
