Astros win World Series in amazing series

Los Angeles, C.A. ~  Things started off bad for the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 7 of the World Series and the Astros never looked back, winning their first ever World Series.

Yu Darvish got pulled after only 5 outs, just like he did in Game 3 in Houston, after he allowed 5 runs, 4 earned. A.J. Hinch played it extra safe on Lance McCullers and with a 5 run lead and a shutout, he was pulled in only 2.1 innings. After Darvish Clayton Kershaw came out of the bull pen and pitched four shutout innings while fanning 4. Brandon Morrow, Chris Devenski, and Francisco Liriano all pitched for one out.

Charlie Morton did a great job out of the bullpen for the Astros in the late innings. Morton, who pitched 4 innings got the win for the Astros.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

George Springer capped of his MVP World Series with a mammoth home run in the second inning and a run scored in the first. Click here to watch George Springer’s line drive Hr in the 2nd.

Springer scored the games first run immediately when he sharply doubled down the left field line and Alex Bregman reached on a wild throw by Cody Bellinger. Bregman then stole third and scored when Jose Altuve hit a sac ground out to make it 2-0 Houston.

In the 2nd Lance McCullers, the Astro starter,  drove in a run when he grounded out and Brian McCann scored. That set up the script for George Springer as he hit a line shot homer for his 5th Springer Dinger of the Fall Classic to make the score 5-0 in favor of the Astros.

 

Los Angeles scored their only run of the game on a base hit off the bat of Andre Ethier in the 6th inning.

The Dodgers weren’t able to complete a comeback and the Houston Astros won the 2017 World Series.
