The Houston Astros have never won a Game 1 of the World Series, as they go down 0-1 in the Fall Classic once again. Framber Valdez’s nerves weren’t on his side, as his night ended after two innings.

Charlie Morton saw his final postseason outing for 2021, after being pulled from Tuesday’s action with a broken right-fibula. The hurler took a comebacker off his leg the inning before he was yanked and will likely be removed from the Atlanta Braves‘ postseason roster on Wednesday.

For Game 2, the Braves are sending Max Fried to the mound, who has three postseason outings behind him this year. The lefty has allowed seven runs over 16.2 innings pitched.
