e4 is not a sacrifice.
White can get the pawn back in few moves.

examples:

1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 d6 3.Nc3 Bf5 4.e4 Bxe4 5.Nxe4 Nxe4 6.Qf3 d5 7.Qb3 with a fork.

Note that 6.Qf3 is typical for humans who go for material gain.
I guess that it is the reason that I find only 6.Qf3 in Fritz8.ctg and in
Junior9.ctg and not computer typical move that do not win material like 6.Qb3 or
6.Bd3
