White Sox starting pitcher Chris Sale snapped a three game losing streak Tuesday, in a 3-2 win over the Yankees.
Sale, who has struggled to find much run support this season, was given little room for error yet again this time around. He pitched into the eighth inning for the third time in four starts, limiting the Yankees to just one run on five hits and four walks in 7 1/3 innings. He struck out six and threw 62 of 108 pitches for strikes in the win.
Sale is now just 7-11 through 21 starts, despite ranking seventh in the American League with a 2.83 ERA. He is 1-3 with a 2.76 ERA since the All-Star break.
Chicago's All-Star starter is next scheduled to take the hill for manager Robin Ventura on Sunday against Minnesota.
