In just six strong innings, Chris Sale led the Atlanta Braves to a 3-1 victory over the San Francisco Giants, striking out nine batters while allowing only one run. With this win, Sale earned his 11th victory of the season, tying him for the most wins in the majors. This impressive performance marks Sale's return to form after a string of successful seasons with the Chicago White Sox and Boston Red Sox. Despite his outstanding outing, Sale remains focused on the team's upcoming games rather than the possibility of being named the National League's starting pitcher in the All-Star game. The Giants struggled against Sale and the Braves' relievers, managing only four hits throughout the game. Austin Riley's two-run double in the fifth inning sealed the win for the Braves, further solidifying Sale's dominant presence on the mound.
