Carlos Gomez is congratulated in the dugout after hitting a home run during the sixth inning of the Brewers’ 6-5 win against the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday in Milwaukee.MILWAUKEE – Julio Teheran just can’t win on the road, though not for lack of effort.
Carlos Gomez hit a go-ahead, three-run homer in the eighth inning and also had a solo shot in the sixth to help the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Atlanta Braves 6-5 on Wednesday.
Teheran pitched seven strong innings and left with a 5-3 lead as Atlanta tried to sweep the three-game series.
Backed by home runs from Cameron Maybin and Kelly Johnson, Teheran appeared to be headed for his first road win since beating Miami on opening day.
He beat Philadelphia at home in his last outing, giving up an unearned run in seven innings, and wanted to take that momentum to Milwaukee.
