Atlanta Braves’ Chris Sale to Miss Upcoming Game Against Minnesota Twins Due to Back Spasms
Atlanta Braves’ ace pitcher, Chris Sale, will miss the upcoming game against the Minnesota Twins due to back spasms. Sale was scratched from his scheduled start in the second game of Monday’s doubleheader against the New York Mets after experiencing back discomfort.
This setback comes after a remarkable 2024 season for Sale, during which he earned the National League Cy Young Award. He led the league with an 18-3 record, a 2.38 ERA, and 225 strikeouts, achieving the prestigious pitching Triple Crown.
The Braves have not yet announced who will replace Sale in the rotation for the upcoming game against the Twins. The team will likely rely on their bullpen or consider a spot starter to fill the void left by Sale’s absence.
Sale’s health will be closely monitored, as the Braves aim to maintain their strong pitching performance in the early stages of the season.
