Braves players have admired Chris Sale from afar for years. A couple of weeks into spring training, they realize he could be a better clubhouse fit than they ever imagined.
NORTH PORT, Fla. — Six years ago, Chris Sale gave an impassioned speech in the Red Sox dugout. But that's putting it nicely. In reality, his outburst of rage is best described as a well-timed tantrum. Sale erupted with F-bombs directed at his offense, the very same talented hitters who helped Boston earn 108 wins in the regular season. But, in that significant sixth inning, the Red Sox trailed the Dodgers, 4-0.
The early impressions of Sale from his new Braves teammates feature his sense of humor and breezy personality off the field, which balances out the intensity he brings when he stomps his cleats into the dirt. Sometimes, Sale's intensity can trickle off the field in the form of meltdowns in the dugout, to smashing coolers, to ripping things off the walls, to taking scissors to jerseys and getting suspended for it.
