LAWRENCEVILLE -- Left-hander Yohan Flande turned in five scoreless innings and Joey Terdoslavich homered as part of a three-run first inning as the Gwinnett Braves notched their sixth-straight win in shutout fashion, 5-0 over the Durham Bulls on Saturday night. Jordan Parraz homered as well, helping the G-Braves to a 3-0 start at Coolray Field this season.

The G-Braves struck early against Bulls' right-hander Matt Torra, scoring three times in the first and never trailing. Jose Constanza reached on a one-out walk and stole second, but was hung up in a rundown between second and third after a comebacker to the mound by Drew Sutton. Ernesto Mejia followed with a double over the head of Bulls' left-fielder Brandon Guyer, sending Sutton home. The very next batter was Terdoslavich, who sent a high fly ball off the top of the right-field wall and over for his second home run of the season. The blast scored himself and Mejia, raising the lead to 3-0.

Three runs would prove to be more than Flande (W, 1-0) would need. The left-hander kept his ERA at 0.00 as he allowed just three hits
