Jacob deGrom fell to 1-5, allowing three runs over five innings in Wednesday's loss to the Braves.
deGrom ran into some first-inning struggles, loading the bases with no outs on a single and two walks. He nearly escaped the frame without allowing a run, but Chris Johnson hit a bases-clearing double to left field with two outs. From there, the right-hander was effective, allowing only six hits and walking two overall while striking out eight, but Julio Teheran wasn't to be defeated. deGrom now has a 3.77 ERA, a 1.41 WHIP, and a 53/26 K/BB ratio. He'll face the Braves again next week, this time at home.
