Preview: Teheran, Scherzer will seek better results in DC opener

Julio Teheran and Max Scherzer may be feeling somewhat similar coming into this game. Each of them will be making their second consecutive start against the same team, and each of them had an outing to forget against that team a week ago.

Julio Teheran’s last outing was undoubtedly worse, and his diminished performance is causing some consternation in Braves Country. Teheran managed to collect just seven outs last Tuesday, while getting drilled for three homers and five total runs in the process. He walked more (three) than he struck out (two), and he left the outing with an unseemly Game Score (version 2) of 5.
