Chris Sale set to start World Series opener

Chris Sale

Boston Red Sox ace Chris Sale will be good to go for Game 1 of the World Series, according to manager Alex Cora.

Cora said Friday that Sale would start Game 1, with David Price likely on track for Game 2.

Sale hasn’t pitched since the ALCS opener on Oct. 13. He was hit by a rather severe stomach illness and was still too weak to start Game 5, being pushed back to Game 6 instead. The Red Sox were able to close out the series without even needing him, a testament to their depth, and with the World Series not set to start until Oct. 23, he’ll have ample time to rest up and regain his strength before making that start against his yet-to-be-determined NL foe.
