The Braves will clinch the NL East if the Marlins beat the Nationals this evening. Dan Uggla went 0-for-3 with a couple of walks, but he nearly homered in a second straight game, barely pulling a ball foul off Gregg in the ninth. He’ll sit tomorrow and start again Sunday.

The Braves, who still lead the series 3-2, would have. As scripted, he was removed from the game after five innings. The Houston Astros kept their dreams of a World Series championship alive after beating the Atlanta Braves 9-5 in Game 5 on Sunday. During the regular season, Fried put up an ERA of 2.48 with a similarly sparking K/BB ratio of 5.31 in 185 innings. Jason Heyward went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored in his return from a broken jaw. 3:40p -180 CWS CIN 3:40p -112 BOS PHI 4:05p -165 MIN CLE 4:10p. The Braves tabbed the All-Star lefty Fried to start Game 1 with ample cause. Johnson collected three hits in all, raising his average to. Chris Johnson and Freeman both homered off Scott Baker in this one. So, not only was the new closer used in a tie game today, but since he’s now pitched two days in a row, he probably won’t be available for a save chance on Saturday.
Atlanta beat Houston 7-0 in Game 6 to secure the championship. It’s especially baffling given that Sveum said earlier this week that Strop was now the closer. The Atlanta Braves defeated the Houston Astros in the 2021 World Series, clinching the title for the first time in 26 years. Strop’s quick hook might have been explained by the fact that he pitched yesterday, but if that’s an issue, why use him at all in a game that’s pretty meaningless for the Cubs? Parker didn’t pitch Thursday, and there’s no reason he couldn’t have gotten all four outs himself. While Gregg has closed most of the year, Parker and Strop have been the Cubs’ best right-handed relievers. Of the previous 48 times, the leading team went on to win the World Series 85 percent of the time (41 of 48) and they won. Strop came in and threw eight pitches to finish the eighth, then was taken out before the ninth even though his spot in the order never came up. This is the 49th time in 117 World Series that it has played out this way. Parker got the final out of the seventh and first of the eighth, then was lifted after nine pitches.

The real mystery is why Blake Parker and Pedro Strop were both removed from the game after retiring two batters apiece.
But that wasn’t the curious decision from Dale Sveum. The Houston Astros host the Atlanta Braves, with the home team looking to even the best-of-seven series. The Braves busted open a 5-5 game with four runs in the ninth to beat the Cubs 9-5 on Friday and clinch at least a tie in the NL East with the Nationals scheduled to play later tonight.Īll four runs in the ninth came after Freddie Freeman was intentionally walked by Kevin Gregg to set up a double play. Game 2 of the 2021 World Series is set for Wednesday evening at Minute Maid Park in Houston.
