PHILADELPHIA -- The Atlanta Braves could have played another hour against the Philadelphia Phillies and they might not have solved Zach Eflin.Eflin struck out six and walked none in his first career complete game and first major-league win, leading the Phillies to a 5-1 victory over Atlanta on Tuesday night.Eflin, a first-round pick in the 2012 draft by the San Diego Padres, needed just 2 hours, 8 minutes to win for the first time this season in five starts.The less pitches the better, he said, smiling.Eflin stood on the mound shaking from excitement as the final pitch of the game was squeezed for the third out. Philadelphias rookie right-hander simply breezed past the Braves.I was just out there with loads of confidence, Eflin said.Eflin, acquired in a 2014 trade that sent Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins to the Los Angeles Dodgers, allowed three homers and nine runs in 2 2/3 innings in his June 14 debut against Toronto.He lost his next start, then rebounded with no-decisions in two straight solid six-inning outings.Eflin certainly found his groove against Atlanta. He threw just 92 crisp pitches and breezed against the hapless Braves in his longest outing of the season in any level of baseball. He became the first Phillies pitcher since Mike Williams in July 1992 to toss a complete game for his first win and hes the first Phillies rookie to throw a complete game since Vance Worley in July 2011.Its something you cant really describe, just being around these guys, Eflin said.Eflin went deep in the game and the Phillies went deep at the plate.Maikel Franco homered for the third straight game, and the Phillies hit four overall. Peter Bourjos, Cody Asche and Tommy Joseph all hit solo shots for the Phillies.Eflin had some help from a generally punchless offense that has shown signs of coming around headed into the All-Star break. The Phillies have scored at least seven runs in three straight games and have won seven of eight overall.I think everybody puts together good at-bats and that puts pressure on the pitcher to make his pitches, Bourjos said. He threw some pitches over the plate and we hit some home runs.Simple enough.Bourjos extended his hitting streak to 14 games and opened the home run derby with his fourth of the season in the first inning against Mike Foltynewicz (2-3). Asche hit his fourth in the fourth and Franco (16) and Joseph (9) both went deep in the sixth.Foltynewicz struck out five and gave up eight hits in 5 2/3 innings.When I had two strikes, I got amped up a little and started to overthrow, he said.TRAINERS ROOMBraves: RHP Julio Teheran was scratched from Wednesdays start in the three-game series finale for Tyrell Jenkins. Teheran returned to Atlanta to be treated for an infection on his right thigh. The Braves are hopeful Teheran will start this weekend in a three-game series against the Chicago White Sox.Phillies: RHP Andrew Bailey is scheduled to start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Wednesday. ... LHP Daniel Stumpf has had his rehab assignment transferred to Lehigh Valley.HOT STREAKBoujos is the first Phillie to hit in 14 straight games since Rollins had a 15-game streak in 2014. ... Franco is the first Phillie to homer in three straight games since Darin Ruf in 2013 and the first to have an RBI in five straight games since Ryan Howard in July 2015.HOT-LANTABraves reliever Dario Alvarez struck out four in 1 1/3 innings and has struck out 19 of the 35 batters he has faced this season. Hes averaging 18.41 strikeouts per nine innings pitched (15 SO/7.1).ALL-STARSBraves: Teheran is just 3-7 but was named to the NL All-Star team for the second time. He was the lone Brave selected.Phillies: CF Odubel Herrera was the only Phillie named to the NL All-Star team. He entered ranked first in four-hit games with three and had two separate hitting streaks of at least 10 games.Herrera, batting .302, said through an interpreter he was proud to represent the Phillies and burst into laughter when he was good-naturedly asked about participating in the home run derby. He has 10 homers.UP NEXTJenkins (0-1, 5.79 ERA) goes against Phillies RHP Jeremy Hellickson (6-6, 4-06). Oscar Robertson Jersey .

Aside from the trilogy main event title fight, there are a number of intriguing matchups in the heavyweight, welterweight and lightweight divisions. Cheap Kings Jerseys . -- Washington Redskins tight end Fred Davis was charged Thursday with driving while intoxicated, a day after he was suspended for an NFL substance-abuse policy violation. The Philadelphia 76ers announced that 2016 No. 1 pick Ben Simmons underwent successful surgery Tuesday to repair an acute Jones fracture of the fifth metatarsal in his right foot.Team officials said Tuesday that Simmons went through the procedure in New York.There is no timetable yet for his return.Sixers coach Brett Brown said he talked with Simmons about two hours before his teams preseason opener against Boston.We talked a little bit about what the plan is now, Brown said. Im excited. In a very sort of twisted way, once you admit and you sort of come to grips with what has happened, Im excited to dig into a different part of his development.Brown noted hes no stranger to this sort of speed bump in developing his young players.I think go back to Year 1, youre with Nerlens [Noel], and then you go to Joel [Embiid], and then you go to Jahlil [Okafor], and now Im with Ben, Brown said. And its holistic. You can sit in a room and you can look at edits of some of the great point guards, some of the great do-all-type players, multi-purpose-type players, that we all sort of look at Ben as growing into. So theres a classroom aspect of it.There is an opportunity to break down his shot part of it, Brown added. There is ann amazing reality that when we are now in this new practice facility that is a basketball health club, you can just move him within a tight proximity over to the sports science side of things: the wet area, the rehab, prehab, massage therapy area.dddddddddddd Then he can walk a few feet on the court and work on his shot. Then he can go a few feet over and go into a beautiful room to watch video on a very professional large screen. We did not have any of that where we were previously with those other three high draft pick injuries. And so the holistic approach is what Im talking about with Ben, and I look forward to sort of leading that charge.Simmons was injured Friday during the final training camp scrimmage at Stockton University in New Jersey. The Sixers said Simmons rolled an ankle; X-rays and an MRI revealed a fractured fifth metatarsal bone.The Australian forward played at LSU last season. He missed time early during his stay with the Tigers while waiting for an ankle injury to heal, and Simmons also left an NBA Summer League contest in July after suffering cramps in both legs. ' ' '
