Roki Sasaki earned his first win in Major League Baseball after seven starts with the Los Angeles Dodgers, getting the decision in Saturday's 10-3 victory over the Atlanta Braves.

Sasaki, 23, had to wait quite a while to earn that first win due to a three-hour rain delay at Atlanta's Truist Park. However, the long delay — and knowing that MLB intended to play the game — apparently helped him relax before taking the mound.
