Reigning Cy Young Award winner and Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Chris Sale was perfect in his 2025 Spring Training debut. Yes, perfect in that sense.
He pitched two innings. Six Minnesota Twins hitters came up to the plate and he sat all of them down. No strikeouts were required to take them out either. It took four ground outs, a line out and a pop-up to get it done.
Sale was efficient, only needing 21 pitches. Among those six outs included some of the Twins' top hitters including shortstop Carlos Correa and outfielder Byron Buxton.
