Astros batting order, World Series Game 2
Jose Altuve, 2B

Alex Bregman, 3B
Yordan Alvarez, DH
Carlos Correa, SS
Kyle Tucker, RF
Yuli Gurriel, 1B

The Astros dropped Game 1 of the WS on Tuesday night 6-2. The only change from Game 1 as far as the Astros’ lineup goes is Siri in for McCormick in centerfield. Max Fried is a lefty, but it doesn’t appear there will be any adjustments for that, which makes sense. The Astros are very righty-heavy anyway outside of Alvarez, Tucker and Brantley. Fried will be a tough matchup, but the Astros benefitted a bit from the Braves needing to use the bullpen for most of Game 1.
