starting lineups for game 1
Nationals:
The Nationals are planning to use Howie Kendrick as the designated hitter for the first two games of the series, which keeps one of their best hitters in the lineup and takes probably their weakest defender off the field. Asdrúbal Cabrera is inserted into the lineup in his place at second base as the Nats elect to go with offense.
Here is the lineup for Washington:
1) Trea Turner, SS
2) Adam Eaton, RF
3) Anthony Rendon, 3B
4) Juan Soto, LF
5) Howie Kendrick, DH
6) Asdrúbal Cabrera, 2B
7) Ryan Zimmerman, 1B
8- Kurt Suzuki, C
9) Victor Robles, CF

Astros:
Houston slashed .179/.281/.318 in the ALCS and did most of its damage with eight home runs, including a pair of walk-offs, so Hinch makes no wholesale changes in the World Series.
Houston:
1) George Springer, CF
2) José Altuve, 2B
3) Michael Brantley, LF
4) Alex Bregman, 3B
5) Yuli Gurriel, 1B
6) Carlos Correa, SS
7) Yordan Alvarez, DH
8- Martín Maldonado, C
9) Josh Reddick, RF

Nationals had 6 days off, hitting usually suffers from that so don't be surprised

Zimmerman home run, way to go Ryan, down 1 now.  Hope Max can shut them down from here on out.

Max is not sharp, 48 pitches through 2 innings is not good.  He will be lucky to go 5 innings.

everything I've read today said Huston was going to shut down the Nats bats, it's far from over but I bet Vegas has already changed the odds

just about 100 pitches for Max after 4, I'd call it a night for him

Great offense by the Nats. Scherzer kind of tepid, but getting it done.
Caps up 2-1 7min into 2nd period.
