World Series 2021: Latest Odds, Important Stats for Braves vs. Astros

The core figures of the Houston Astros' 2017 World Series title run who are still on the roster made a massive impact on the 2021 World Series on Sunday night.

Jose Altuve, Alex Bregman and Carlos Correa combined for five hits and three RBI in Houston's Game 5 win over Atlanta.

Houston kept the series alive thanks to its experienced bats and an impressive bullpen performance. The Astros relievers limited Atlanta to one run after Adam Duvall's first-inning grand slam.

Atlanta is still the odds-on favorite to win the World Series, but Houston gave itself a chance to rally back on home soil with its Game 5 victory.
