Tomahawk Take Editor’s Note: The Atlanta Braves took down the San Diego Padres in the very first (official) game at the SunTrust Park. Julio Teheran got the start in front of a packed house and pitched great for the Braves. His only issues came in the 2nd inning when he walked the leadoff batter. Though he got the next batter to ground into a double play, the inning didn’t end there. He hit Erick Aybar with a 0-2 pitch and then gave up three straight singles. This scored two runs to tie the game.
The Braves fought back in the 4th inning when they loaded the bases for Teheran.
