ATLANTA -- There was no way Julio Teheran was leaving the game after Eric Campbells liner hit his right leg and bounced toward third base in the fourth inning. Oren Burks Packers Jersey . Teheran was determined to pitch through the pain, especially after the Braves gave him three runs in the first. Chris Johnson hit a three-run double, Teheran overcame the injury scare to pitch seven strong innings and Atlanta beat the New York Mets 3-1 Wednesday night to complete a three-game sweep. The Braves extended their season-best winning streak to seven games, but perhaps the best news was that Teheran wasnt hurt. Atlanta, which placed catcher Evan Gattis on the 15-day disabled list this week with a bulging disk in his back, couldnt afford another key injury as it battles Washington for the NL East lead. Teheran said his lower right leg was "burning" after he was struck by the liner. "I wanted to stay in the game so bad," Teheran said. With manager Fredi Gonzalez and assistant trainer Jim Lovell watching from behind the mound, Teheran tested the leg with a few throws to the plate and stayed in. Teheran (8-5) gave up four hits and three walks while lowering his ERA to 2.29. "He gave us a great outing," Gonzalez said. "The last two innings, it was a gut check. He got himself in trouble and made some great pitches." Jordan Walden pitched a perfect ninth for his third save as closer Craig Kimbrel received a night off. The Mets have lost four straight and seven of their last eight games and are a season-worst 11 games below .500. They hope to have David Wright is back in the lineup when they open a home series against Texas on Friday night. Wright remained in New York this week to receive treatment for his bruised left rotator cuff. "Obviously we miss Davids bat in the lineup, theres no doubt," Mets manager Terry Collins said. "We competed as good as we can compete." The Braves remain a half-game ahead of Washington. Atlantas winning streak includes a four-game sweep at Philadelphia and its first sweep of the Mets since September 2012 at New York. The seven-game streak is Atlantas longest since 14 straight from July 26-Aug. 7 last season. New York rookie Jacob deGrom (1-5) again battled his season-long control problems in a long first inning. The Braves, helped by two walks from deGrom, loaded the bases with no outs in the first. Atlanta was in danger of wasting the opportunity before Johnson lined the three-run double past Campbell at third base with two outs. After throwing 37 pitches in the first, deGrom didnt walk another batter or allow another run. He gave up three runs on six hits in five innings. "That first inning got me," deGrom said. "I think I was a little amped up, just trying to maybe overthrow it a little bit in the first. To recover from that was good. I wanted to at least get to five (innings)." Eric Young Jr. singled, stole second, advanced to third on a wild pitch and scored on Curtis Grandersons fly ball to left field in the fourth inning. Young reached on another single in the sixth before being picked off first base by Teheran. Teheran gave up a single to Juan Lagares and walked Granderson before striking out Campbell to end the sixth. Lagares had a one-out single off Anthony Vavaro in the eighth. Daniel Murphy hit a sharp grounder toward second base that Tommy La Stella caught while diving toward the bag. While on the ground, La Stella flipped the ball to Andrelton Simmons for the force out at second. La Stella started after leaving Tuesday nights game with a right foot that was bruised when he was hit by a pitch. NOTES: Gonzalez said the team will have a better estimate on a recovery period for Gattis when the success of Tuesdays epidural can be evaluated in about four days. Gonzalez said he has "not even entertained" the thought of Gattis playing left field when he returns to possibly take pressure off his back. ... The first-pitch temperature was 91 degrees, and Braves were allowed to report later than normal and take batting practice in the indoor cage "to let their bodies recharge a little bit." ... Both teams are off Thursday. The Mets open a home series against Texas on Friday night, and the Braves homestand continues with a weekend series against Arizona. JK Scott Packers Jersey .com) - Troy Brouwer scored the game-winning goal with just 12. Oren Burks Jersey . Old times for a defence that has looked just plain old recently? "No," safety Ryan Clark said. "We used to be much better than that. http://www.packersrookiestore.com/Packers-Tramon-Williams-Jersey/ . The third baseman whipped the ball across the diamond to second baseman Aaron Hill. He quickly tossed it to shortstop Chris Owings, who flipped over his shoulder to left fielder Cody Ross.Vilified to vindicated. Henry Burris, quarterback for the Ottawa Redblacks, finally led a team not to a win but to a dominant win, 42-20 over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. Statistically he had his best game of the year by going 24 for 31 for 284 yards but numbers only tell part of the story. Henry showed great leadership and emotion. To take over an expansion franchise is a challenge and consider this - he could have gone to an established team and become a back-up and got paid and faded away with a nice career. Quite the opposite, he took a better contract and met a new challenge of establishing a new CFL franchise, so well done Henry. The other positive aspect of football was Jonathan Williams at running back. Hes a first-year player that has an elusive skill set that you cant teach. Often in finding football players you look for the aspects of the game you cant teach knowing you can teach just about everything else. The way that Williams can make people miss in space and congestion in accordance with his speed is a gift to be developed. The running back position is a genuine strength in Ottawa as they still have Chevon Walker on the roster who is a top CFL back already. The battle for playing time for both running backs will be something to watch as the organization develops. It may have taken 15 weeks but last week looked like a major step forward. For Winnipeg, its back to answering the question why but one answer is obvious. In four of the last five games an opposition running back has created over 100 yards of offence, in some games a lot more. It has to end before the Bombers begin to win again. With Calgary and Saskatchewan I wish Drew Tate was a free agent. Bo Levi Mitchell is a better quarterback in the extremely significant skill of deep ball ability and thinking way back John Hufnagel made the right decision between the two. But Tate has a passion to win that I think you can use and build on for any team without an established number one player. You look for tangible and intangible qualities in players and the intangible quality of Tates desire and enthusiasm is as close to tangible as there is. Calgary will not let him go but if they did he could play for half the teams in the league as a starter. With the Riders I thought they handled their quarterback dilemma perfectly. Cory Chamblin and George Cortez had to find out what they have in Seth Doege and they found out that he is not ready. At this point of the season practice is not always a good indicator of ability and the truth is always shown in a game against other good players. They took a chance and noow they know Tino Sunseri is the guy. Jaire Alexander Packers Jersey. My most enjoyable observation from the entire week was the look on Sunseris face when he was told he was given a second chance. You could tell just from the body language that this time was his time and he knew it and showed it by going 16 or 19 for 289. Cortez has been around and coached some of the best quarterbacks on the planet on both sides of the border. Chamblin and Cortez knew exactly what they were doing and for the rest of the season they have clarity at footballs most important position. In Toronto, Edmonton lost because of 18 penalties for 224 yards and Toronto won because they shut down John White and Mike Reilly as runners. In the Rider game the week previous the combination of Reilly/White had 302 rushing yards; in this game at Rogers Centre, 53 yards. Then the Argo combination of Steele and Slaton had over 100 yards. Edmonton became one dimensional and Toronto stayed balanced. Edmonton plays Saskatchewan in Regina next week and you will see a more disciplined Eskimo team this time around. And Game 4 was the best game to watch for me as you just did not know who would win until the very end. Hamilton has made the transition from being hesitant and passive to confident and aggressive. You often see individual players mature and do well and it is easy to see. But then, when enough of them individually go through that process, it is a process you notice as a team. Team Maturity. Mossis Madu has effectively taken the place of CJ Gable and in Kent Austins system an all-purpose running back is critical. 86 yards receiving and 56 yards running is a good day but the best is some perfect pass protection blocks that are only noticed the next day in video analysis. Zach Collaros was 33 yards away from a 400-yard passing performance and Brandon Banks is becoming a special return performer and all around player. Going back to the off-season Justin Medlock was signed and many, not just myself, thought that down the road he was going to win some games. His going 5 for 5 for 15 points was a main reason Hamilton won 19-17. In BC when you consider there was no Andrew Harris, no Stephan Logan and no Tim Brown, they played well enough to almost pull it out in the end. I hope Solomon Elimimian is voted Most Outstanding Player when the season is over with BC. Still, Adam Bighill deserves recognition for his excellence. BC just may have the two best interior linebackers in CFL football playing side by side. Fifteen weeks are gone and only five are left with the East finally playing with ability and confidence.
