00:00Talking about another team from New York City in Queens.

00:03They're not in Queens this weekend.

00:04They're down to the Big A.

00:05But the struggles continue.

00:06Yesterday, the Atlanta Braves 5-0 blanked the New York Mets in that game.

00:11Paul Blackburn, as we said yesterday, Joe, overmatched on the mound.

00:14Probably not going to have a great start.

00:15Three and two-thirds innings pitched.

00:16He gives up the three runs.

00:17And basically, that's all the Braves needed.

00:19Because Sale, eight and two-thirds innings pitched.

00:22Five hits, no earned runs.

00:24Seven strikeouts.

00:25Just like we thought from a Cy Young-Ward winning pitcher here.

00:28He was dominant.

00:29The Braves win again.

00:30But more importantly, the Mets lose again.

00:33It's hilarious, too.

00:35Because I don't think any Met got past second base yesterday against Sale in that game.

00:41So, I mean, he was about as dominant as you have seen.

00:44In fact, he's been like this now over his last six starts, Donnie.

00:48We're talking about Chris Sale.

00:50He's only given up four runs in his last 41 and two-thirds innings.

00:54That's a 0.86 ERA in his last six starts.

00:58Is that dominant and Cy Young-worthy?

01:01I would think so.
