Chris Sale endured his share of ups and downs over the past few years with the Boston Red Sox. However, his first season with the Atlanta Braves has been a success so far.
Sale was elected to the MLB All-Star Game as a result of his stellar first-half. The Braves hurler will not pitch in the game, though, since he is scheduled to pitch for the Braves on Sunday. It was announced on Saturday that Sale will be replaced by Cristopher Sanchez of the Philadelphia Phillies.
