Chris Sale secured his first win of the season as the Atlanta Braves triumphed over the Arizona Diamondbacks with an 8-2 victory, marking their first success against a National League West team this season. Austin Riley and Eli White contributed significantly to the Braves' offense, each driving in two runs, while Sale threw 104 pitches over five innings, allowing only one run, five hits, and improved his ERA from 6.17 to 5.40. Eli White's performance was notable as he drove in the first run with a double in the second inning and scored again in the eighth. Arizona's Zac Gallen allowed three runs over five innings, and a costly error by Eugenio Suárez in the sixth inning extended the Braves' lead. The Braves' win was only their third on the road this season, highlighting their struggle with away games compared to teams like Colorado with even poorer road records.

Chris Sale achieved his first win of the season as the Braves defeated the Diamondbacks 8-2, a significant milestone considering the Braves' previous 0-7 record against National League West teams.

Austin Riley and Eli White were instrumental in the Braves' offense, each player driving in two runs, contributing to the team's recent successful stretch of winning six out of their last seven games.

Sale, the 2024 NL Cy Young Award winner, threw 104 pitches over five innings, skillfully navigating through challenges to allow only one run, five hits, and improved his ERA from 6.17 to 5.40.

Eli White's contribution was pivotal; he drove in the first run with a double in the second inning and had previously hit a three-run homer in a recent game against St. Louis.

Zac Gallen, pitching for the Diamondbacks, allowed three runs over five innings, while Atlanta managed to score additional runs due to a throwing error by Eugenio Suárez and their effective batting in the eighth inning against Yilber Díaz.

The Braves' victory was significant as it was only their third road win this season, contrasting with their overall performance, and compared to Colorado's 1-14 road record.

Despite a strong showing, Arizona's Corbin Carroll, who was tied for the major league lead with nine homers, faced a setback when a home run was overturned after a review.
