Cleveland in 1995 World Series Game 6Īnderson's no-hit bid is the second longest by a rookie in World Series history, trailing only former Giants righty Jeff Tesreau.
It is tied for the third longest no-hit bid by a starter in Braves postseason history: He struck out four and threw nearly as many balls (37) as strikes (39). Anderson was unhittableĭominant? Not necessarily, but Ian Anderson tossed five no-hit innings against the Astros in Game 5, limiting the highest-scoring offense in baseball to three walks and a hit batter. The Astros will try to even the series in Game 4 on Saturday night back at Truist Park.
D'Arnaud now has five hits through the first three games of the series. Atlanta catcher Travis d'Arnaud added a valuable insurance run in the eighth when he hit a solo home run off Astros reliever Kendall Graveman. The first run of the game came on a one-out double by Austin Riley in the third inning that plated Freddie Freeman. After four starts and 17 innings during these playoffs, Anderson now boasts an ERA of 1.59. The Astros finished with two hits on the night, as Alex Bregman led off the ninth inning with a single.Īs for Anderson, he became the first starting pitcher in World Series history to be removed after throwing at least five no-hit innings. Thus ended what was the longest World Series no-hit bid since Jim Lonborg's 7 2/3 hitless innings in Game 2 of the 1967 Fall Classic. Houston finally managed its first hit when pinch-hitter Aledmys Diaz led off the eighth against Tyler Matzek by dumping a bloop single in front of Eddie Rosario in left. The decision proved wise, as the Braves' bullpen completed the shutout. He did so despite inconsistent command, and Braves manager Brian Snitker lifted him before he could face the tough Houston lineup a third time. The 23-year-old rookie Anderson twirled five of those no-hit innings. The Braves now lead the best-of-seven series by a count of two games to one. Starter Ian Anderson and two Atlanta Braves relievers held the Houston Astros hitless through seven innings en route to a critical 2-0 win in Game 3 of the World Series on Friday night.
