5/10/24 Braves Put Win Streak on the Line in Citi Field Versus the New York Mets. The Atlanta Braves are SO back. After a disastrous 1-5 West Coast road trip, Atlanta swept the Boston Red Sox thanks to phenomenal pitching performances from Reynaldo López and Chris Sale and offensive support from designated hitter Marcell Ozuna, who now leads all of baseball in both home runs (12) and RBIs (38) after hitting two longballs on Wednesday.

4/27/24 Sale, Ozuna lead Braves past Guardians 6-2 in matchup of MLB's two best teams. Chris Sale shook off another leadoff homer and Marcell Ozuna kept up his torrid start with two more RBIs, leading the Atlanta Braves past the Cleveland Guardians 6-2 in a matchup between MLB’s two best teams. The Braves won for the 10th time in 11 games to improve to 18-6, while the Guardians slipped to 18-8. Sale surrendered a leadoff homer to Steven Kwan, but that was pretty much it. He pitched two-hit ball over seven innings. Ozuna's two-run double in the fourth put the Braves ahead. He's now got 31 RBIs on the season, the most ever for a Braves player before the start of May. Logan Allen took the loss for the Guardians.

4/26/24 Chris Sale sailing along for first-place Braves, hoping for injury-free season. Chris Sale was hesitant to discuss how good he's feeling after another strong start for the Atlanta Braves. It's understandable that Sale wouldn't want to jinx himself after all the injuries he endured with the Boston Red Sox. Once one of the game's most dominant pitchers, the guy with the funky motion and nasty stuff, Sale managed just 31 starts over the past four seasons, spending far more time in the training room than he did on the mound.

4/13/24 Pitching takes center stage as Braves visit Marlins. The Braves, who won the series opener 8-1 on Friday, will start left-hander Chris Sale (1-0, 3.38 ERA), while the Marlins will go with right-hander Max Meyer (1-0, 2.45). At 35, Sale is a decade older than Meyer. Meyer would love to have the success experienced by Sale, a native Floridian who was the 13th overall pick out of Florida Gulf Coast in 2010. From 2012 to 2019, Sale averaged 29 starts per season, making seven consecutive All-Star appearances and winning one World Series title (2018 with the Boston Red Sox).
