Chris Sale is the correct pitcher to have on the mound for Atlanta to bounce back from Wednesday's 8-0 loss. Sale is 7-3 with a 1.89 ERA and a 0.87 WHIP. He comes off a 9-1 victory over Miami last Wednesday when he allowed a run on four hits in seven innings. Sale has given up two earned runs or fewer in all but one game this season. Boston has lost four of its last five and sits in last place in the AL East. The Red Sox are 9-18 at home, and Atlanta is 20-9 on the road. Boston has gone UNDER seven of eight Thursday games. Payton Tolle is 2-2 with a 0.82 WHIP for Boston. Six of the past eight meetings have gone UNDER. Take the Braves and the UNDER.
