Atlanta Braves' Chris Sale and Detroit Tigers' Tarik Skubal Win 2024 Cy Young Awards
Atlanta Braves pitcher Chris Sale and Detroit Tigers pitcher Tarik Skubal have both been honored with the prestigious Cy Young Awards as the best pitchers in Major League Baseball for the 2024 season. Sale won the National League award, while Skubal took home the American League honor, marking a significant achievement for both players.
Chris Sale, 35, completed his first season with the Braves with an impressive 18-3 record and a 2.38 ERA, leading the majors in ERA and striking out 225 batters over 177.2 innings. His performance not only earned him the Cy Young Award but also the pitching Triple Crown title, making him the first National League player to achieve this since Clayton Kershaw in 2011. Sale’s accolades also include a Gold Glove Award, recognizing his exceptional defensive skills, and he was named an All-Star for the eighth time in his career. This season has marked a remarkable comeback for Sale, who had struggled with injuries over previous years.
On the other hand, Tarik Skubal, 28, also made headlines with his outstanding season, finishing with an 18-4 record, a 2.39 ERA, and a league-leading 228 strikeouts. His performance helped the Tigers secure their first postseason appearance in a decade. Skubal’s achievement of the Triple Crown in the American League reflects his dominance on the mound, and he celebrated his award on his 28th birthday.
Both pitchers have made history by being the first left-handed pitchers to win the Cy Young Awards in both leagues in the same season since 1967. This year’s awards highlight a remarkable turnaround for both players, particularly after their respective battles with injuries in previous seasons.
Sale expressed gratitude for the support he received during challenging times and acknowledged the efforts of his teammates, while Skubal highlighted the dedication and hard work that led to their successes. The recognition of both pitchers not only cements their legacies in baseball but also exemplifies their determination and resilience in overcoming adversity.
