Braves, Astros tie in rain-shortened affair

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. -- Julio Teheran cruised through one of his final tune-ups for the regular season and Dan Straily enhanced his bid for a spot in Houston's bullpen before rain ended Friday's game at ESPN's Wide World of Sports in the seventh inning with the Braves and Astros tied at 1.

Teheran scattered four hits over six scoreless innings, and in the process, he took another encouraging step toward what will be his third consecutive Opening Day start. The Braves' ace surrendered a pair of doubles to Danny Worth and another to Matt Duffy, who was picked off second base to end the top of the second inning.
