Sale (8-2) gave up three runs on nine hits over seven innings in a win over the Tigers on Saturday. He struck out seven and did not issue a walk.
After eight consecutive double-digit strikeout performances, Sale has now fallen short of 10 strikeouts in four straight outings. He's also given up 25 hits in his last three starts, but his control remains sharp and he's won seven straight decisions. There's little reason to think Sale won't continue to produce like an ace the rest of the way.
