2020 Clayton Kershaw Game 1 Dodgers 8 Tampa Bay 3 Kershaw had a dominating performance pitching 6 innings with 1 run, 2 hits and 8 strikeouts.
2021 Max Fried Game 6 Atlanta 6, Houston 0 Houston jumped out to a lot of runs early against the Braves in game 5. Max Fried made sure that didn’t happen again. Ian Anderson earlier pitched 5 hitless innings to start game 3 for the Braves. However, I like Fried’s start better. He pitched 6 innings and had zero walks versus 3 for Anderson. Both pitchers didn’t allow a run.
2022 Cristian Javier Game 4 Houston 5, Phil 0 Javier started a lot of things in this game. He pitched the first six innings of a no hitter, the second in World Series history. He started a streak of great pitching for the Astros as they gave up only 3 runs in games 5 and 6 to win the series and Dusty Baker’s World Series title. Javier also had 9 strikeouts in the 6 innings he pitched.
The winner was 2022 Cristian Javier Game 4 Houston 5, Phil 0.
I thought the election would be closer, but Bruce said it all, the no hitter. It was a turning point in the World Series as Philadelphia bats were basically silence in the last three games after a great postseason run.
Thus is this series, it sure has been fun.
