Chris Sale pitched well as the Atlanta Braves beat the Washington Nationals on Friday, but he still fell just short of some awesome franchise history.
The Atlanta Braves beat the Washington Nationals 3-2 in 10-innings on Friday night at Truist Park in Atlanta. With the win, the Braves are now 69-59 on the year. They maintain control of the third and final wild card spot in the National League.
Starting pitcher Chris Sale didn't factor into the decision, but he did continue his solid bounceback season on the mound. The lefty went 7.0 innings and allowed just two earned runs. He did give up nine hits, but was able to minimize damage. He walked one struck out four. He has a superb 2.62 ERA on the season and will likely factor into the Cy Young discussion.
