September 8 - Atlanta Braves left-hander Chris Sale will be out to extend a club record on Sunday afternoon in the rubber match of a three-game series with the visiting Toronto Blue Jays.
Sale (16-3, 2.46 ERA) most recently took the mound against the Colorado Rockies on Tuesday, coming away with a win after logging seven scoreless innings. It marked his 15th straight start in which he has allowed two earned runs or fewer, a feat that no Braves pitcher had accomplished since 1912 -- when earned runs officially became a statistic in the National League.
Now Sale has a chance to give Atlanta (77-65) a series win.
