HOUSTON (AP)The Latest on Game 1 of the World Series (all times local):
9:35 p.m.
Houston’s Jake Odorizzi and Atlanta’s A.J. Minter combined to pitch the first scoreless inning of the 2021 World Series in the fifth.
Odorizzi induced a groundout by Eddie Rosario to start the inning. He then struck out both Adam Duvall and Travis d’Arnaud looking to end the top half of the inning.
Odorizzi didn’t make the ALDS roster but was added in the championship series because of an injury to staff ace Lance McCullers Jr. Odorizzi was a starter in the regular season but has been used exclusively in relief this postseason.
