WS Game 4, In Which Chris Sale Reaches His Breaking Point

Chris Sale is usually completely unflappable on the mound. He reveals almost no emotion on his face. Most of the time, you cannot tell if he has struck out the last six batters or given up back-to-back home runs. Well, it turns out the slender lefty can get extremely fired up when he wants to.

Boston trailed the Dodgers 4-0 after six innings and had managed only one hit against Rich Hill. A loss would have tied the World Series at two games apiece.

Jen McCaffrey, The Athletic:

Enter Chris Sale — not into the game, but playing the role as a slightly unhinged hype-man.
