Planning to use their bullpen to cover Saturday's World Series Game 4, the Houston Astros hope that Friday's game was a glimpse of what is to come. Robinson Chirinos hit a home run, Michael Brantley drove in a pair of runs, and five relievers made their presence known in Game 3, as the visiting Astros earned a 4-1 victory over the Washington Nationals. The Astros' first victory in the matchup, and first victory in the World Series since winning the deciding Game 7 against the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2017, came after the Nationals won the first two games at Houston.
