- Braves at Phillies chat and discussion: Chris Sale vs. Cristopher Sánchez
We've been treated to Chris Sale going up against some of the best pitchers in baseball lately.
August alone saw him battle against Gerrit Cole of the Yankees, Jacob Misiorowski of the Brewers and Yoshinobu Yamamoto of the Dodgers.

That run continues Friday night as the Braves ace faces off against Phillies ace Cristopher Sánchez in the opener of a four-game series in Philadelphia which is set for a 6:40 p.m. ET start time.
The Braves won five of six games against the Phillies back in April, including the final game before manager Rob Thomson was fired in a moment that turned around Philadelphia's season.
A similar showing the next two weekends would effectively lock up the NL East, but it won't come as easy against a opposing team which has won 15 of its last 18 games.
Tune in on BravesVision or the radio, ride the emotional roller coaster and follow along in this game thread as the Braves face rival Philadelphia for the first time in over four months.
