Cool eighth: Altuve tries to hit another over-the-wall homer, but it falls just short, and Rosario does a spectacular catch to close the inning. Braves still ahead, 3-2 as it goes into the ninth.

9th inning: No runs for the Astros, Braves win game 3-2, and now lead the series 3-1. Cool.

On to the fifth and perhaps the last game in the 2021 World Series.

Spoke too soon. Astros still up at the top of the 3rd, scored twice, now even at 4-4, two outs. Cool.

We'll see if the Braves can up their count in the bottom.

There goes that annoying tomahawk chop and chant again. I like the Braves but they really need to rethink that shit.

9-5 Astros, at top of 8th inning.

Looks like the Braves will be playing in Texas next week.

And that was the final score. 9-5 Astros.

Game Seven of the series will be Tuesday, 5 pm PDT. Back in Houston.

I think!

The good news is that we won't be hearing much if any more Tomahawk chants during the next two games.

Manager for the Astros is Dusty Baker, who is a familiar name in the SF Bay Area. He managed the SF Giants for ten years, until 2002.

Didn't realize it from watching the games, but watching the game victory congratulations Soler was dwarfing his teammates. Soler is a bit of a giant: 6'4", 215 lbs, power hitter. Interesting history, as well. Born in Havana, Cuban boy makes good.

Congrats to Soler and the Atlanta Braves on an excellent world series.
