Atlanta’s series win over Miami helped them bounce back after a mixed start to the season, providing a positive backdrop as they head to the road for the Phillies series.
Teheran’s retirement was announced via Instagram on March 10, a message in which he reflected on a career defined by gratitude for his family, mentors, and supporters. He emphasized the discipline, humility, and resilience baseball taught him as he closes the book on his playing days.
Teheran spent the first nine years of his MLB career with the Braves. In 2013, at age 22, he went 14-8 with a 3.20 ERA in 30 appearances, a season that helped establish him as a cornerstone of Atlanta’s rotation and led to All-Star selections in 2014 and 2016.
With his career now over, Teheran leaves behind a lasting Braves legacy, including two All-Star appearances and a memory of his breakout season in Atlanta that helped define a key era for the franchise.
