The Atlanta Braves and the Houston Astros will play Game 2 of the 2021 World Series on Wednesday night. The Braves won Game 1 on Tuesday in Houston in dominating fashion. As such, a Game 2 victory would put them in command of the series as it shifts to Atlanta. The Game 2 pitching matchup will pit Braves lefty Max Fried against Astros righty José Urquidy.
The Braves, appearing in their first World Series since 1999, reached this point after dispatching the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Division Series, and then the reigning champion Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL Championship Series. The Astros won their third pennant in five years by toppling a pair of Sox: the Chicago White Sox in the ALDS, and the Boston Red Sox in the ALCS.
With that throat-clearing out of the way, let's get to the important stuff -- like how you can watch Wednesday night's game.
