It was another business-as-usual night for Chris Sale. He gave the Atlanta Braves 6 2/3 innings of one-run ball on four hits while striking out nine against the Seattle Mariners.
For someone who missed more than two months of the season, no beats were missed. Over his last 12 starts, which consist of 10 starts from before his injury and two from after, he has a 1.26 ERA. He’s still giving the team at least six innings and hasn’t allowed more than one earned run since May 11.
The work he put in to make sure he came back ready keeps paying dividends, and he expressed his gratitude for the support that made that work possible.
