A dominant pitching performance by Ian Anderson and the bullpen helped send the Atlanta Braves to a 2-0 win in Game 3 of the World Series. The Braves now have a 2-1 edge in the series with Games 4 and 5 to come at Truist Park over the weekend.
Ian Anderson got the start and wasn’t as sharp as we have seen in the past but he was effective tossing five no-hit innings against statistically, the best offense in the majors. Despite having the no-hitter intact, Brian Snitker made the decision to pull Anderson after the fifth rather than have him face the top of the Astros lineup for a third time.
