Chris Sale shook off another first-inning homer and Marcell Ozuna kept up his torrid start with two more RBIs, leading the Atlanta Braves past the Cleveland Guardians 6-2 Friday night in the opener of a series matching MLB's two best teams. The reigning NL East champion Braves won for the 10th time in 11 games to improve to 18-6, pushing them a game ahead of the AL-leading Guardians (18-8).

Just six months removed from a 76-win season, the Guardians are 18-7, have lost only one series all season and are back to being the scrappiest, peskiest team in all of Major League Baseball. After another off-season of minimal spending, breaking camp with no experienced center fielders and losing their ace just two starts into his season, it's truly remarkable how well the Guardians have dealt with adversity. Make no mistake, this is a significantly better baseball team than the 2023 Guardians, who were a disappointment in nearly every way.

The Red Sox got out of town Thursday after dropping two of three to the Guardians and five of seven overall as the two clubs wrapped up their season series, but one Cleveland hitter is probably the most sad to see the BoSox go.
