HOUSTON — The Latest on Game 1 of the World Series (all times local):
10:35 p.m.
Tyler Matzek threw a called third strike past Alex Bregman with a runner on to end the seventh inning, and the Atlanta Braves took a 5-1 lead over Houston into the eighth thanks to a big effort from their bullpen.
Luke Jackson struck out three in 1 2/3 scoreless innings before giving way to Matzek. The left-hander gave up a two-out single to Michael Brantley, then fanned Bregman.
Earlier in the inning, Jackson struck out Jose Altuve, leaving him 0 for 4 with three strikeouts -- the first time the star second baseman has fanned three times in a postseason game.
