Chris Sale managed not get tossed during Saturday’s loss to the Yankees, even after he vigorously argued a balk call that led to the Yankees’ go-ahead run in the bottom of the fifth. On Sunday, the Atlanta lefty didn’t even make it to the first pitch of the game.

Sale got called for a balk in the bottom of the fifth inning of Saturday's game, which plated a run for the Yankees.

This is Sale's fourth career ejection and his first since Aug. 3, 2019.
