Cannot complain too much after two games.

We got the split, which is what you want to accomplish.

Fried actually pitched much better than the score shows. Did not realize it, but there was only one hard hit ball against him in that big second inning for the Stros, so it wasn't like they lit him up like the Dodgers did in Game 5 of the NLCS. The Braves just made too many mistakes in the field and good teams like Houston will make you pay for it.

At one point in the game, both teams were even in hits, but we were down 5-2. We had opportunities, just did not take advantage. Was nice to see Travis get going and Soler looks like he is seeing the ball really well.

Dylan Lee and Kyle Wright had good showings. Smyly got a rude awakening from Altuve.

Did not look at raw numbers, but it sure seems like we struck out looking an awful lot these last two games. I think it is fair to say that the zone was somewhat expanded, but you have to protect the plate. Riley struck out five times over these two games, which is half of what he had in the NLCS (most of which was on the road, including Game 4 when he struck out five times). Just not use to seeing that from him at all, usually such a clutch 2 strike hitter. Not taking away anything from his big 1st inning hit in Game 1. Hope playing at home gets him going again and we start getting multiple double games from him instead of multiple strikeout games.

Glad today is a travel day...only other thing I would rather see than a World Series game is my son playing football (junior high) and I am glad I do not have to choose tonight.

We missed two dbl plays two passed balls and a bad throw by outfielder that got away from everyone

Mistakes like that can't happen
