Chris Sale Defies Time Again | Amarillo News

Chris Sale is rewriting the script on aging greatness, tossing a 100-mph fastball and shutting down the Dodgers in a complete-game masterpiece with 11 strikeouts and just 5 hits. His ERA drops to 2.06, catapulting him into Cy Young contention—and reminding everyone he’s still elite. Since joining Atlanta, he’s been lights out, even winning the 2024 Cy Young Award. After battling Tommy John surgery and doubters, he’s returned stronger than ever, with career WAR already matching CC Sabathia’s Hall of Fame trajectory. With a Braves team on fire—undefeated last week, seven-game win streak, and five games ahead in the NL East—Sale’s dominance is fueling their charge. This isn’t a fluke; it’s proof that experience, grit, and pure talent can defy Father Time—and maybe even earn him a Cooperstown plaque.
