ATLANTA — Chris Sale allowed one run and struck out six over six innings, shutting down Shohei Ohtani in the process, for his major league-leading 17th win of the season as the Atlanta Braves beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 10-1. Sale (17-3), who hasn't been charged with a loss since June 27, became the first player in Braves history to allow no more than two earned runs in 17 straight starts, passing Hall of Famer Greg Maddux's previous record of 16 starts. Matt Olson had four RBIs to lead the Braves at the plate. Ohtani had a strikeout and walk and remains stalled in his quest for 50 homers and 50 steals.
