BOSTON (AP) — The Boston Red Sox are ready to slowly ease ace
Chris Sale back into action.Manager Alex Cora says the left-hander will be
activated from the disabled list and pitch about two innings Tuesday night
against Toronto at Fenway Park. Cora said Sale would throw a maximum of 40
pitches for the AL East leaders.Cora made the announcement before Boston hosted
Houston on Friday. The Red Sox have the best record in the majors and http://www.twinsfanproshop.com/authentic-jake-odorizzi-jersey ,
if they win their division, would begin the playoffs in exactly four weeks.Sale
originally went on the disabled list July 31 with mild left shoulder
inflammation. He returned for a start Aug. 12 against Baltimore, going five
innings and striking out 12. But he quickly as placed back on the disabled list
a week later with the same ailment.“Little by little, we’re getting healthy,”
Cora said.Sale has been dominant this season, going 12-4 with a 1.97 ERA. His
ERA is the second-best in the majors, and he has struck out 219 in only 146
innings. In July, he started the All-Star game for the third straight year.Cora
said the progression for Sale with be two innings his first outing, followed by
three in his next start.“We’ll keep going and then last one — whenever it is —
it’s like a full-go six innings Eddie
Rosario Jersey , 100 pitches or seven innings 100 pitches,” Cora
said. “There’s a few days with the off-days there where we’ll take advantage of
him building up and taking care of other guys.” ATLANTA — The Atlanta Braves
have built a 7 1/2-game lead in the National League East thanks to 42-21 record
within the division and a 45-30 overall road record — the best in the league.Now
the Braves (82-64) can wrap up the division title by turning SunTrust Park into
a real home-field advantage during their final homestand beginning Friday night.
Atlanta, just 37-34 in its home ballpark, welcomes Washington and St. Louis for
three games each, then Philadelphia for four games before playing the final week
of the regular season on the road against the New York Mets and Phillies.Article

go right to the wire. But the Phillies (74-71) fell on hard times and the
Nationals (74-73) didn’t get things turned around quite fast enough.“We’ve
worked hard to get to this point,” Braves manager Brian Snitker said Wednesday
after his team completed a 6-1 road trip by allowing just three total runs in a
three-game sweep at San Francisco. “We’ve grinded through things to get to this
position. We can look to bigger things now.”The Braves’ magic number for
clinching the division title with 16 games to go is 10 versus the second-place
Phillies and eight versus Washington, which fell 8 1/2 games behind with a 4-3
loss in 10 innings to the Chicago Cubs on Thursday in a makeup game at home. The
Braves are 5-2 at home and 9-7 overall against the Nationals, who will pitch
defending two-time NL Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer in the series opener.
He is 17-6 with a 2.31 ERA and leads the major leagues with 271
strikeouts.Fellow right-hander Kevin Gausman will get the start for
Atlanta Robbie
Grossman Jersey , which lost at least 90 games each of the past
three seasons before turning things around this season. He is 9-10 with a 3.89
ERA overall but 4-2 with a 2.32 ERA since being acquired by the Braves at the
end of July. Scherzer is coming into his fifth start of the season against
Atlanta off his second complete game of the season. Gausman will face the
Nationals for the first time with the Braves after his shortest outing for his
new team.Gausman lasted just 4 2/3 innings and allowed four runs in a loss at
Arizona a day before Scherzer struck out 11 in nine innings in a home victory
over the Chicago Cubs.“I had plenty in the tank,” Scherzer said after reaching
double-figure strikeouts for the 16th time this season.Scherzer is 2-1 with a
1.67 ERA and 30 strikeouts in 27 innings against Atlanta this season, improving
to 9-6 with a 3.45 ERA in 21 career games versus the Braves.Gausman is 3-1 with
a 4.34 ERA in five career outings against Washington, all while with Baltimore.
He allowed four hits and two runs in six innings of a no-decision against the
Nationals for the Orioles in June.Braves third baseman Johan Camargo is nursing
a slight groin strain, but fill-in Charlie Culberson has flourished against the
Nationals this season, batting .350 (14-for-40) with five homers and eight RBIs.
Culberson has four hits, including a homer, in 10 at-bats against
Scherzer. jhby
