The Atlanta Braves look to build on a recent comeback win as they face a struggling pitcher, Chris Sale, who has been plagued by poor batted ball luck this season. Sale's performance metrics show he can improve to his past Cy Young winning level, despite averaging less than 5.0 innings per outing. The Twins are sending rookie Simeon Woods Richardson to the mound, who has yet to impress in his young career. The Braves have a chance to capitalize against Woods Richardson, although their offensive consistency has been questionable lately.
After a huge comeback win Friday night, the Braves will hope to finally find their footing this season behind last season's Cy Young winner.
Sale hasn't quite looked himself this season, but has suffered from some brutal batted ball luck, as his ERA is almost exactly twice his xFIP.
