BRAVES TAKE THE LEAD IN WORLD SERIES; 2ND GAME TONIGHT

New York Times

HOUSTON — Atlanta stepped into its first World Series since 1999 sharply, quickly and memorably. Jorge Soler blasted Framber Valdez’s third pitch of the game deep over the left-field fence, putting an immediate charge into the 117th World Series: It was the first time in Series history that the first batter of the game homered.

Valdez, who left a 2-0 slider up and over the plate, failed to regain his balance as Atlanta poured it on from there. Every Atlanta batter collected at least one hit by evening’s end. By the end of the third inning, Atlanta had scored five times, Valdez had been chased and the Astros were well on their way toward losing their fifth consecutive home World Series game.

The final score of 6-2 was a solid representation of how things went, with Atlanta mostly comfortable after Soler’s strike.

I wonder if the Astros are still stealing the signals without using the trash cans. I just can't push myself to cheer and support a team that cheated in able to win. People get mad that I say this. The real reason they get mad is because it's true (aka fact).
