The Houston Astros prevailed in Game 5 with a 9-5 win but the Atlanta Braves continue to lead the World Series three games to two. Jeff and Kevin recap the weekend at the World Series, specifically how pitchers are being used (and have been used all postseason), the way the Astros batters got the job done in Game 5, and Dusty Baker’s comments on his hitters feeling comfortable in that game (1:14). Next, 1995 World Series Champion with Atlanta and former Blue Jays coach Mike Mordecai compares this year’s edition of the Braves to his teams in ’95/’96, the biggest challenge for an infielder dealing with so many pitching changes, why Atlanta didn’t win more World Series with their dominant pitching staff, and managing pitchers at the high school level and how it differs from years past (32:07).
