Teheran again excels, Braves blank Marlins 1-0

MIAMI (AP) -- Rookie Austin Riley and the Atlanta Braves made the most of their hits, thanks to Julio Teheran and a trio of relievers.

Teheran pitched six sharp innings and Riley scored the only run, lifting the Braves over the Miami Marlins 1-0 on Saturday.

Riley gave extra effort for a leadoff double in the seventh against Trevor Richards. Riley's hard grounder glanced off the glove of shortstop Miguel Rojas and rolled into the outfield.

''I just hustled and then once I saw it get through I maybe knew I had a chance and heard 'go, go, go, go,' and I was going,'' Riley said.
