    I like Baker for the same reason, but not enough to want the Cheatros to beat my Braves.

    Well, that's a bit different. You already root for the Braves. I have no stake in either team.

    Heh, I thought playing The Avengers' Theme for the Cheatros introduction was maybe a BIT much... Presumably Altuve doesn't skip leg day or something...much like Cap.

    Soler leads off with a solo shot to center. He becomes the first batter ever to lead off the WS with a HR...which fact I find incredible....you'd have thought it happened fairly often.

    Morton's looking bad. Albies saves him with bases loaded. Still 2-0.

    Oh yes, Bill Murray intro. Otahni got a special award from the comish for being awesome, first time since Jeter.

    I am not an Astros fan but this Kyle Tucker guy is going to be a superstar. He hits the ball hard like 7 out of 10 times. He has all the make up of a great long term hitter.

    Losing Morton hurts but the Braves still took game 1 convincingly

    Interestingly Jorge Soler became the first player in MLB history to lead off a World Series(game 1 top of the first) with a homer
