White Sox stud left-hander Chris Sale achieved his seventh straight quality start Thursday against Oakland. And "quality" does not begin to describe it.
Sale dominated the Athletics, giving up just two hits (both to Jed Lowrie) in eight innings. He walked two and fanned nine in raising his record to 12-3. Sale retired 19 in a row at one point and lowered his ERA to 1.99, its lowest point since July 26.
The Chicago ace is set to start again at Kansas City on Wednesday.
