The Atlanta Braves kicked off their series with a notable victory, defeating the Cleveland Guardians 6-2 on Friday. Several key factors contributed to their success, including Chris Sale’s stellar pitching, Ozzie Albies’ comeback, and Marcell Ozuna’s impactful hitting.
Chris Sale delivered an outstanding performance, pitching seven innings of just one-run baseball. He allowed only two hits, walked one batter, and struck out six, throwing a total of 95 pitches, 67 of which were strikes.
Ozzie Albies returned to action after missing eight games due to a fractured toe, quickly making an impact. Despite the setback, Albies managed to secure two hits, an RBI, and a run scored in four at-bats.
With Friday’s victory, the Braves extended their record to 18-6 and have now won ten of their last eleven games. The series will continue tonight at 7:20 ET, with Charlie Morton set to take the mound.
