Astros vs. Braves – Game Report – October 29, 2021

ATLANTA (AFP) – Rookie Ian Anderson and the Braves Bullpen didn’t allow a hit until the eighth inning when Atlanta beat the Houston Astros 2-0 on Friday night, reclaiming their world championship lead by 2-1.

Austin Riley and Travis Darno drove the Atlanta rounds, which was enough and he left one night when Anderson and four thinners combined to hit two hitters.

Aledmys Diaz hit a pinch hitter with a tame hitting 71 mph in the start of the eighth off loyalist Tyler Matzik. The ball fell in front of left player Eddie Rosario, just 232 feet from the home plate.

Ironically, this is a game-breaking not a beating.

Alex Bregman singled out the right and center field with the field offset by closest Will Smith early in the ninth inning.

In the third inning, Riley put Venezuelan star junior Luis Garcia’s brave young Astros ahead. D’Arnaud hit a 437-foot fastball from Kendall Graveman in eighth.

It was the second time D’Arnaud had walked at home in this world championship and the first time at home this season.

Of the previous 60 Fall Classic tied 1-1, the Game Three winner has won 39 times, including six of the last nine.

Puerto Rico Rosario managed the walk that started in the third inning as the Astros had to make 43 throws. Freddy Freeman’s singles and Garcia cut a fast ball right above the board.

Riley hit the liner between Bergman and the third mat. The ball ran over the left field line to double the RBI.

Cuban Jorge Soler walked but Garcia left the bases loaded when Adam Duval missed the start and Darno hit a kick.

The Braves, who have left nine players with their backs sighing on the tracks, improved to 6-0 this post-season at Truist Park, which opened in 2017 and where they have won 11 of their last 12 games.

At the World Championships, Atlanta lost the last five home matches.

Houston, the best batting team in the major leagues this season with an average of 0.267, was limited to two strokes, three walks and two base runs.

The 23-year-old right-hander was not surprisingly in control, but he managed to dominate his opponents. Hit four and walked three.

AJ Minter and Luke Jackson covered one stroke per head.

For the Astros, Venezuela’s Jose Altove 3-0, Luis Garcia 1-0, Marwin Gonzalez 1-0. Cuban Yordan Alvarez 3-0, Yuli Gouriel 3-0, Diaz 1-1. Puerto Rican Carlos Correa 3-0, Martin Maldonado 2-0.

For the brave, Puerto Rico Rosario 3-1 inning record. Cuban Soler 2-0. Venezuela’s Iyer Adrianza 1-0.
