Well if it was easy, this wouldn’t be the first combined no hitter in WS history. IMO that makes it worthy of attention, and there’s a reason there’s a special term for it which differentiates it from a “regular” no hitter.
As for tonight, two things I’m watching.
Verlander obviously.
The Phillies bullpen is not deep and can Alvarado bounce back? Usually when a reliever has weigh outing in a series, things get worse. The Astros had some gritty at bats and two strike base hits in the 5th last night. That could carry over IMO.
