5-1 record and a 1.45 ERA in six outings including two complete games and a Game 7 save in the World Series on ZERO rest.
He also had the most productive regular season of any Dodgers starter (14-9 record, 2.35 ERA in a team-high 28 starts and 185 innings).

Sale comes here off four days of rest. When he’s had at least that amount this season, he boasts a 1.89 ERA.
That includes two clinics against the Dodgers, including a five-hit shutout with 11 strikeouts in late August at Truist Park.
The other in early May saw Sale record 7 strikeouts in 7.0 innings with an ERA of 2.20.
