Houston Astros vs. Atlanta Braves Game 6
The Houston Astros live to see other day. They played exceptionally well on Sunday and lived up to most viewers expectations by gashing the Atlanta Braves 9-5. It was just in time for the Astros to come alive with the help of Carlos Correa and the rest of their bats, if they waited any longer the World Series would be over. Houston made the most of their last game in Atlanta and cut the deficit in the series to 3-2 before they take the trip back home for Games 6 & 7 (if necessary) at Minute Maid Park.
Better late than never for the Houston Astros. Their bats finally came alive and out shined the Atlanta Braves in a crucial Game 5 win. Adam Duvall went deep for a grand slam in the first inning, Correa and Alex Bregman kept swinging to blow the score wide open while Jose Urquidy kept them at bay to rally past Atlanta 9-5. The series sits at 3-2 in the Braves favor, which means the Astros will need to win another two games to secure the title. Luckily they will have home crowd advantage for the next two.
When the Braves lose they lose bad. Both of their defeats this series have been by more than four runs and two of their three wins have came down to the wire. They were underdogs this series and have shocked America by going up previously three games to one against the legitimate Astros. All they must do now is maintain composure with their bullpen and their bats to win one more game out of a possible three, in Houston.
Game 6 Tuesday in Minute Maid Park, Houston.
Pitching Probables: Braves: Max Fried (1-2, 3.10 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, 158 strikeouts this postseason)
Astros: Luis Garcia (1-2, 3.25 ERA, 1.15 WHIP 167 strikeouts this postseason)

Houston Astros vs. Atlanta Braves Game 5
The Atlanta Braves are surging. Even though they are squeaking by the Houston Astros each time they win they are still doing exactly what they need to do to take the World Series title. Now the Braves are leading the series 3-1 against the Astros and game 5 will be played in Atlanta’s Truist Park were the Braves try to extend their home winning streak to 8-0 this postseason.
The Braves 3-2 win over the Astros on Saturday has gave us a perspective that it really depends who is pitching for their squad. The Braves bullpen has been red hot these previous two games only allowing two runs through those two. This is an impressive feat as the Astros have plenty of star power to run up the score on any given team. The Braves were the team hitting away as they scored two home runs to gain a commanding 3-1 lead in the World Series against Houston.
Houston may have a problem now. Being down 3-1 in any series and in any sport is near impossible to claw out of. They were the first team to score in Game 4. Their only two scores came from Jose Altuve and were up in the fourth inning. However, Houston is kicking themselves after missing opportunity after opportunity. They went hitless in eight at-bats with runners in scoring position and leaving 11 on base throughout the course of the game.
Pitching in the late game for Atlanta was crucial in their 3-2 win. After the fourth inning they did not allow a score and their offense were able to string together three runs in two innings to relieve the stress for their bullpen. Houston needs a good push from their stars and bullpen to pull off the do-or-die contest.
Game 5 will be played in Truist Park where the Braves look to win the World Series at home.
Pitching Probables: Houston: Framber Valdez Atlanta: No starter named

Houston Astros vs. Atlanta Braves Game 4
Game 3 was a quiet yet important win for the Atlanta Braves on Friday. The Braves gave their home crowd a win in style by shutting out the Houston Astros 2-0 to take a 2-1 lead in the World Series. In this non-so high scoring affair there is still a lot to pick apart and give us more of an idea who is the best team in the MLB.
The Braves pitching was almost immaculate. Atlanta only gave up two hits to skunk the Houston Astros 2-0. Ian Anderson, Atlanta’s rookie left handed pitcher took a no-hit bid into the eighth inning, Austin Riley and Travis d’Arnaud drove in the Braves only two runs which was enough to give Atlanta the win.
Houston looked bland. For being the top hitting team in the majors with a .267 average they could only get two hits, three walks, and two hit batters. They were fine on the pitching end only allowing two runs but the best hitting team couldn’t overcome a two run deficit. There isn’t much to say about the Astros in this one other than they need to steal a game from Atlanta so they aren’t clawing back down 3-1.
Of the previous 60 times the World Series was tied 1-1, the Game 3 winner has won 39 of those – including six of the last nine. You could say this is a must win for Houston as being tied up in the series is a lot better than being down two games with Game 5 looming in Atlanta as well.
Game 5 will be in Atlanta for the next two games. The Braves are 6-0 at Truist park this postseason and look to extend that streak.
Pitching Probables: No starter named. Houston: Zack Greinke was expected to start Braves: Will go with the first of consecutive bullpen games in response to loosing Game 1 starter Charlie Morton to a broken leg.

Houston Astros vs. Atlanta Braves Game 3
We figured Houston would get back on track and all three Jose’s were a big part of Houston’s bounce back in game 2. The Astros were able to knot up the series to 1-1 versus the Braves at home. Pitching will be a crucial part in Game 3 of the World Series where they will be playing at Truist Park in Atlanta.
Jose Altuve came away with an early double then later in the contest homered and scored twice. Jose Siri (previous minor leaguer) wrecked havoc on the bases, leading a four-run second inning that propelled the Astros to snap a five-game skid at home in the World Series. Jose Urquidy delivered five decent innings to net him his second career World Series win
As for Atlanta Travis d’Arnaud went deep for a score and then a RBI single for Freddie Freeman were about all the Braves could muster in Game 3. They were also abysmal in the pitching department, Max Fried the starting pitcher let up every one of Houston’s scores except for one. After the contest Atlanta said they were lucky to even the series before heading home.
Game 3 should feature the same kind of play we’ve witnessed through two. Whosever bullpen shows up for this one will walk away with a win because we all know each side can capitalize on mistakes their opponents create. The biggest games create the biggest stars and look for them to shine bright in Game 3.
Houston takes their talents to Atlanta for Game 3 Friday.
Pitching Probables: Astros: Luis Garcia (1-1, 3.25 ERA, 1.15 WHIP, 167 strikeouts this postseason) Ian Anderson (1-0, 3.58 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, 124 strikeouts this postseason)

Houston Astros vs. Atlanta Braves Game 2
Atlanta made a statement Tuesday night. After beating Houston 6-2 the Braves look like they belong in the World Series this year. Being the underdogs and beating Houston on their home turf in game 1 of the World Series deserves our attention. Houston’s stars were quite but, we know what happens when the bats come alive.
Houston looked mostly lost at the plate on Tuesday night especially their star players Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa. However, the last time we mentioned these two were sluggish they came out the next game and showed why they are considered stars. You would think they would understand the atmosphere after this being their third World Series appearance in five years and first since their 2017 sign stealing scandal was revealed. Supposedly Major League Commissioner Rob Manfred ordered plenty of sleuths to monitor dugouts, clubhouses, and to stand guard against any possible suspicions. Both the league and the Braves are ready to crack down on Houston at any time, I mean they do deserve it…
The Atlanta Braves take a 1-0 lead in the World Series. Jorge Soler, Adam Duvall, and a strong effort from their bullpen were integral parts for Atlanta’s game 1 win. The Braves were unfortunately dealt a bad hand as well, when pitcher Charlie Morton went down with a broken leg but shushed the Houston Astros 6-2 Tuesday night. It was Atlanta’s game from the beginning, scoring five of their six runs in the first three innings and delivered great pitching to close out the rest of the game.
Game 2 is Wednesday night where the Houston Astros look to even the series at home.
Pitching Probable’s: Braves Max Fried (1-1, 3.10 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, 158 strikeouts this postseason) Astros: Jose Urquidy (1-0, 3.62 ERA, .98 WHIP, 90 strikeouts this postseason)
