Chris Sale led the Atlanta Braves to a dominant 10-1 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers, earning his major league-leading 17th win of the season. Sale pitched six innings, allowing just one run and striking out six, while surpassing Greg Maddux's franchise record by allowing no more than two earned runs in 17 consecutive starts. The Braves scored six runs in the sixth inning, highlighted by three-run doubles from Matt Olson and Orlando Arcia, which propelled them to tie for the final NL wild-card spot alongside the New York Mets. Meanwhile, Dodgers pitcher Jack Flaherty struggled mightily, lasting only three innings and giving up four runs, with the Dodgers now having lost four of their last five games. Shohei Ohtani's pursuit of becoming the first player to hit 50 home runs and steal 50 bases in a season has stalled, as he went 0 for 6 in his last two games. The Braves' offensive performance came without hitting a home run, showcasing their ability to capitalize on scoring opportunities.
