Jorge Soler stays in Braves lineup vs. Astros as World Series shifts venues

If we’re going to see the latest episode of Joctober tonight, it’ll have to happen off the bench.

The lineups for Game 3 of the 2021 World Series are out and it’s time to go right on ahead and take a look at them ahead of the first pitch.

Here’s how the Braves will be looking as they get set to hit the baseball tonight:

We’re back in the National League, which means that there’s a “P” beside the ninth spot in the lineup. Someone’s going to be the odd man out without a DH and that ended up being Joc Pederson. Jorge Soler is getting the start in right field and he’ll be batting fifth in the order. All things told, I do like this lineup.

Meanwhile, here’s how Houston will be looking for tonight’s game:

You can put a pitcher in this lineup and it’s still ridiculously deep. Michael Brantley has moved to right field, Kyle Tucker is in center field, and Yordan Alvarez will be putting on a glove and playing left field in this one. A very, very deep lineup, indeed.
