ATLANTA (AP) — The Latest on Game 3 of the World Series (all times local):
11:30 p.m.
Houston finally has a hit — but still no runs.
Atlanta closer Will Smith will try to keep it that way. Smith, who pitched a scoreless inning in Game 1, will face Alex Bregman, Yordan Alvarez and Carlos Correa in the ninth inning with a 2-0 lead. That trio is a combined 0 for 5 with two walks.
The Braves added onto their slim advantage in the eighth when Travis d’Arnaud clubbed his second homer of the World Series.
