Joe Ross Struggles in Game 5 Loss

Ross was overmatched by a hot Astros lineup, and they took advantage early. Yordan Alvarez rocketed a ball over the centerfield wall and drove in Yuli Gurriel in the second inning. He lasted until the fourth inning until Carlos Correa blasted another two-run homer. Ross struck out just one batter over five innings and walked […]

Gerrit Cole Slams The Door In Game 5 Win

The best pitcher in baseball is showing us the ice running through his veins. After a tough game one, Gerrit Cole locked in and went seven innings, allowing just one run on three hits. He struck out nine batters and the Nationals were in scoring position just once all game long. His only blemish was […]

Jose Urquidy Goes Five Scoreless Innings And Gets Win

Urquidy came through huge for the Astros, who needed someone to step in and win a game in-between Zack Greinke and Gerrit Cole. He did exactly what was needed, giving up just two hits and striking out four through five scoreless innings. We may see Urquidy return to this series in the bullpen, and he's […]

Michael Brantley Goes 3-for-5 And Scores Twice in Game 4 Win

Mr. Consistent has continued his ways into the World Series and now has eight total hits in four games. They're going to need him more than ever in game five, as Max Scherzer takes the mound at home in Nationals Park. The Astros and Nationals are tied up 2-2, so it's now a best-of-3 series. […]

Carlos Correa Walks Three Times in Game 4

Correa was extremely patient in game four, and he ended up working three walks in five at-bats. For a guy that sported just a 10.9% BB rate, Correa stepped up and did what was necessary to get this win. He's been hot this entire postseason and they'll need him for these last two wins. It'll […]

Alex Bregman Goes 3-for-5 And Homers in Game 4 Win

The Astros tied the series up at 2-2 on the shoulders of Alex Bregman, who finished the game with five RBI's and a seventh-inning blast off of Fernando Rodney. Bregman has been nails in this World Series and is a candidate for MVP if the Astros can pull off the comeback. He doesn't give into […]

Jose Altuve Doubles Twice in Game 3 Victory

It could've been three doubles for Altuve quite easily, but his first-inning line drive was snagged by Robles in center. He was seeing Anibal Sanchez better than anyone in this Astros lineup and he doubled down in the third and fifth innings, hitting doubles and scoring in both. It was a much-needed performance from Altuve, […]

Anibal Sanchez Struggles in Game 3 Loss

Sanchez has posted a 5.10 xFIP this season, so he's really not a good pitcher. He has stepped up in a huge with this postseason and we've all been waiting for one of these games. Sanchez gave up 10 hits and four earned runs over just 5.1 innings, cementing a game three loss. Jose Altuve […]

Zack Greinke Gets Job Done in Game 3 Win

Greinke didn't have a great game, pitching just 4.2 innings and allowing one run. It was exactly what the Astros needed, though, as they got an early lead and never gave it up.
