League Championship Series, Game #2 - Houston 4, Atlanta 2 (12 minutes)
United Federation of Baseball League Championship Series, Game #2 - Houston 4, Atlanta 2 (12 minutes). The Astros now lead the series 2 games to none as Luis Garcia strikes out 12 Atlanta batters in 7.1 innings. Atlanta's 2 runs came on solo homers by Travis D'Arnaud in the 5th and Matt Olson in the 8th. But Atlanta never led in the game. The Astros scored first, Atlanta starter Kyle Wright gave up an rbi single by Yuli Gurriel in the 3rd. D'Arnaud's homer tied it up in the top of the 5th, but in the bottom of the 5th the Astros took a 3-1 lead on a successful squeeze play by Jose Altuve and an rbi double by Kyle Tucker. The Astros made it 4-1 in the 7th when a runner scored from third on a groundball force play at second. Ryan Pressly pitched 1.2 innings for the save, and Wright was charged with the loss. For the Astros, Gurriel was 3-for-4. For Game #3, the scene switches to Atlanta and the pitching matchup will be Spencer Strider for Atlanta and Christian Javier for the Astros.
