Ace pitcher Chris Sale dominates Acuña in BP

During a recent live batting practice session, Atlanta Braves pitcher Chris Sale emerged victorious over his teammate Ronald Acuña Jr. Sale struck out Acuña twice, showcasing his pitching dominance even in a practice setting. Following the encounter, Acuña humorously remarked that he "don't see" Sale's pitches, indicating the effectiveness of Sale's performance.

The spring training environment allows for such lighthearted matchups before the intensity of the regular season. While Acuña managed one walk in their limited career plate appearances, Sale has historically had the upper hand, striking him out in two other instances. Now teammates, both players are focused on the upcoming season.

Sale's performance in practice suggests he is preparing well for the season, where Acuña will benefit from his pitching rather than face him as an opponent. This dynamic reflects the team-building and preparation that defines spring training.
