Yankees’ Juan Soto gives blunt Chris Sale take after Braves loss

New York Yankees slugger Juan Soto is being honest about facing the Atlanta Braves' Chris Sale. Sale and Atlanta held the Bronx Bombers to just one run on Friday, in a 8-1 victory. Soto was 0-for-4 in the game.

“He's a great pitcher, and tonight he made great pitches,” Soto said. The Yankees outfielder also commended Sale for keeping batters off-balance with his throws.

The Yankees are struggling. The team has lost five of their last six games, and they have been boat raced in their last two contests.
