Braves beat Astros in Game 1 of the World Series but Charlie Morton suffers right fibula fracture

HOUSTON — Everybody in baseball loves Charlie Morton. He used to pitch for the Houston Astros, and José Altuve called him the best teammate “you can ever have.” He now pitches for the Atlanta Braves, and his teammates say they treasure him, his humility, and his thoughtfulness, too. He began this World Series as universally respected as a baseball player can be. He will end it as a legend.
