Braves' Chris Sale: Strikes out eight in victory
Sale (8-3) earned the win over Boston on Thursday, allowing two runs on six hits and three walks while striking out eight batters over five innings.
Sale labored a bit more than usual, needing 96 pitches to get through five frames. The left-hander had a stretch of seven straight quality starts snapped Thursday, but he was still able to pick up his eighth win of the season, tied for second most in MLB. Sale has had one poor start this year -- he gave up six runs over four innings against the Angels on April 6 -- but he's allowed two or fewer earned runs in his other 10 appearances. Overall, he's posting ace-like numbers, recording a 2.01 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 80:17 K:BB through 67 frames.

Braves' Chris Sale: Dominance continues in win
Sale (7-3) earned the win Wednesday against Miami, allowing one run on four hits and no walks in seven innings. He struck out eight.
The All-Star southpaw found himself in peak form again Wednesday, generating 18 whiffs en route to fanning at least seven for a sixth consecutive start. Sale has now spun at least six frames while yielding one or no earned runs in eight of his 10 outings on the year. He'll take a career-best 1.89 ERA, 0.87 WHIP and 72:14 K:BB over 62 innings into his next appearance, which tentatively lines up to come in Boston against the Red Sox.

Braves' Chris Sale: Takes tough-luck loss Thursday
Sale (6-3) took the loss against the Cubs on Thursday, allowing an unearned run on five hits and two walks while striking out eight batters over six innings.
Sale was excellent Thursday, with the only run against him coming as the result of an error in a hitless sixth inning. However, Atlanta's offense was shut down by five Chicago pitchers, so that unearned run was enough to tag Sale with his second straight defeat. Despite the loss, Sale lowered his ERA to a sterling 1.96, which ranks ninth in MLB among qualified starters. The veteran lefty has complemented that excellent mark with a 0.91 WHIP and 64 strikeouts -- both of which also rank in the top 10 -- over 55 innings spanning nine starts this year.

Braves' Chris Sale: Goes seven innings in loss
Sale (6-2) allowed three runs (two earned) on five hits and struck out seven without walking a batter over seven innings, taking the loss versus the Dodgers on Friday.
Sale's four-start winning streak came to an end in this battle between early leaders in the National League this season. This was also just the second time in eight starts Sale has given up more than one run, with both of those instances coming in Southern California. Sale has a dominant 2.20 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 56:12 K:BB across 49 innings over eight starts this season. The southpaw will look to bounce back in his next start, which is projected to be at home versus the Cubs.

Braves' Chris Sale: Carves up Rockies in sixth win
Sale (6-1) earned the win Saturday against the Rockies, allowing one run on three hits and three walks in seven innings. He struck out 11.
Facing a tough assignment in Colorado, Sale delivered perhaps his best start of the season thus far. The 37-year-old southpaw fanned a season-high 11 on Saturday, tied a season most in innings and submitted his sixth start of the year with at least six frames while giving up one run or zero. Sale has a stellar 2.14 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 49:12 over 42 innings, but a daunting task in Los Angeles against the Dodgers is on tap for his next outing.

Braves' Chris Sale: Excellent again in fifth win
Sale (5-1) earned the win Sunday over the Phillies, allowing one hit and two walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out nine.
It was another stellar outing from Sale, as he notched his fifth win and quality start while setting a new season high with nine punchouts. The veteran southpaw has allowed just two runs over 19 innings in his last three starts, lowering his ERA to 2.31 on the year with a 0.91 WHIP and 38:9 K:BB across 35 innings. Sale is tentatively lined up to face the Rockies at Coors Field his next time out.
