Chris Sale implodes early as Angels tag him for six runs
by Nate Miller | Braves Correspondent | Tue, Apr 7th 9:09am EDT
Chris Sale allowed six earned runs on five hits and two walks while striking out seven over four-plus innings in Monday's 6-2 loss to the Angels.
Fantasy Impact:
Sale needed 77 pitches to record 12 outs Monday in the kind of uncharacteristically poor outing that gets fantasy managers reaching for the antacids. The ace lefty more than deserves the benefit of the doubt here, as he was superb in his first two starts of the season and has built a Hall of Fame resume in his career. It's also notable that Sale was under the weather the previous few days. He will look to bounce back Sunday against the Guardians.
