"On a team like this, they need me to be better, and I haven't been there for them," said Sale following a loss his last time out that dropped him to 3-8 on the season. The left-hander's quest at redemption begins Saturday as he takes on the visiting Los Angeles Dodgers in his first start of the second half. Sale's ERA climbed to 4.04 after he was tagged for five runs on a season-high nine hits in 5 2/3 innings against the Toronto Blue Jays on July 3.
