Braves can't back dominant Sale in 2-1 loss
Briefly

For anyone that was worried about Sale after his blow-up against the Athletics last weekend, this game probably went down relatively smoothly, as Sale was great. He finished the outing with seven innings of ten strikeout, one walk ball, essentially returning to the warpath.
But, it was all to little avail, because the Braves just couldn't push enough runs across to make up for that 2-0 hole. Jake Irvin, who dominated the Braves in Atlanta earlier, didn't pitch particularly well this time around, but it was good enough.
