Stroman has dominant start in win over Braves

ATLANTA -- It's been a miserable first half for Marcus Stroman, but the Blue Jays' right-hander ended it on a high note as he turned in his strongest outing of the season on Tuesday, and Toronto's lineup came through with a five-run eighth inning against the Braves' bullpen en route to a 6-2 win over Atlanta at SunTrust Park.

Stroman, who went 1-for-3 at the plate, was locked in a pitchers' duel with Braves righty Julio Teheran, allowing one run on six hits with five strikeouts and two walks as he matched a season-high seven innings.
