 After allowing 17 runs over the first two games of the series (two losses), the Astros allowed one run in each of Games 3 through 5 in Washington (three wins). They are the first team to allow one or fewer runs in three straight games within a single World Series since the 1985 Royals (Games 5-7 vs. Cardinals).

 With a win tonight, Houston would become the fourth team ever to win the World Series in six games after falling behind 0-2. They would join the 1978 Yankees (vs. Dodgers), 1981 Dodgers (vs. Yankees) and 1996 Yankees (vs. Braves).

 In seven road games this postseason, Washington's starting pitchers have a 1.85 ERA (9/43.2) and .167 opponent batting average. The Nationals have won six straight road contests, tied for the second-longest road win streak all-time within a single postseason (Yankees, 8 in 1996; White Sox, 6 in 2005).

 Among National League pitchers with at least 40.0 career postseason innings pitched, Stephen Strasburg's 1.34 ERA trails only Hall of Famers Sandy Koufax (0.95) and Christy Mathewson (1.06). Over his last 13 outings overall (12 starts) going back to August 20, Strasburg is 7-1 with a 1.82 ERA.

 Juan Soto accounted for the Nationals' only run in Sunday's 7-1 loss with a seventh-inning solo home run. Having just turned 21 on Friday, his four home runs this postseason are tied for the most all-time by a player 21 or younger in a single postseason (Miguel Cabrera, 2003 Marlins).

 Yordan Alvarez had gone 21 games without a home run (since Sept. 21) and 14 games without an RBI (since Oct. 4, Game 1 of ALDS) -- both his longest droughts of the season -- before going 3-for-3 with a homer and two RBI in Game 5. He's hitting .545 in the World Series (6-for-11).

 Justin Verlander was the losing pitcher in Game 2, allowing four runs and seven hits in 6.0 innings. He is now winless in six career World Series starts (0-5), tying the record for most consecutive World Series starts by a pitcher without a win (Gary Nolan, 1970-75).

HP - Holbrook, 1B - Wolf, 2B - Eddings, 3B - Cederstrom, LF - Hoye, RF - Barksdale

HOUSTON -- There was no logical explanation to be shared, so Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez didn't allot too much time attempting to decipher something both historic and unfathomable.
With the Nationals' 7-2 victory over the Houston Astros in Game 6 of the World Series on Tuesday, the visiting teams improved to 6-0, a first in postseason history. Washington will attempt to complete the road sweep Wednesday in Game 7 of the Fall Classic, a result that would give the franchise its first championship.

Winding road led Astros, Nats to World Series Game 7

HOUSTON (AP)  It's been an unconventional road to Game 7 of the World Series for Stephen Strasburg and the Washington Nationals.
Seizing the October spotlight he missed out on as a youngster, Strasburg pitched another postseason gem into the ninth inning Tuesday night as the Nationals beat the Houston Astros 7-2 to tie this Fall Classic at 3-3.
