Braves’ Chris Sale somehow gets ejected from Yankees clash before it even starts
The Atlanta Braves take on the New York Yankees on Sunday. Atlanta will be playing the game without pitcher Chris Sale.
“Ummmm…. Chris Sale has been ejected from today’s game, which has not begun yet,” the New York Daily News reported to X, formerly Twitter, on Sunday.
Sale was called for a balk when pitching on Saturday, in a Braves loss. Atlanta manager Walt Weiss said that balk was a terrible call, and was thrown out of Saturday’s game when he argued with the home plate umpire.
“Sale declared the hitter before that he was going out of the windup,” Weiss said after Atlanta’s 5-4 loss Saturday, per the Associated Press. “He said he did not declare after that. He’s never done that in his career so it’s a terrible call. I always try to show the umpires respect, and they know that, but you can’t make that call right there.”
