ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Chris Sale wishes he could be on the mound for the Boston Red Sox in their next series at Yankee Stadium.
Sale will have to settle for a spot along the dugout rail to watch the highly anticipated showdown after his 12-strikeout performance for the Red Sox, who beat the Texas Rangers 6-1 Sunday to maintain their AL East lead.
“They’re rolling, we’re catching our stride again. And it’ll be fun,” Sale said. “This is our first time going up to New York, so I wish I was getting the ball in one of those games.
