The first game between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Houston Astros was a high-wire pitching duel, resulting in the shortest World Series game in 25 years. The second game was more like a home-run derby batting exhibition, extending into extra innings and presenting a dramatically timed series of fortune-turning homers. After all that drama at Dodger Stadium, this year’s World Series is tied 1-1, and Game 3 will be played tonight in Houston.
