The Atlanta Braves placed infielder/outfielder Ehire Adrianza on the postseason paternity list, and infielder Johan Camargo will replace him for at least Game 6 of the World Series on Tuesday night in Houston.
The Braves have a 3-2 lead over the Astros in the best-of-seven series.
Major League Baseball approved the move, which allows Adrianza to be away from the team for at least one day up to a maximum of three days. Game 7, if necessary, is scheduled for Wednesday.
