Astros’ pitching was not the primary reason they lost this series. They scored four runs combined in the four games they lost. I don’t care if they had the 2019 pitching staff, they still lose this series because the bats didn’t do their part. Before game 6, the Astros had only allowed 18 runs (3.6 per game) and Framber was responsible for 10 of them. Also, other than Siri beating out a dribbler past the mound in game 2, the Astros got nothing from him and McCormick in the World Series, offensively. They went 1-10 at the plate. The only reason CF wasn’t a complete black hole is Tucker was moved there for games 3 through 5 in Atlanta. They missed Jake Meyers in the World Series.
