The Texas Rangers won a crucial game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, taking a 2-1 lead in the World Series. Despite injuries to Max Scherzer and Adolis García, the Rangers remain undefeated on the road this postseason. Corey Seager, with a two-run homer, proved his worth on the game's biggest stage. The Rangers' strong pitching performance and solid defense contributed to their victory.
Texas overcame injuries to Scherzer and slugger Adolis García in improving to 9-0 on the road this post-season, this time in front of more than 48,000 fans at Chase Field.
García cut down Christian Walker at the plate with a stellar throw from right field in the second, stifling some early Arizona momentum. García exited in the eighth with tightness on his left side after appearing to get hurt on a swing. “Just staying ready … and just waiting on that call. I knew it was going to happen eventually,” said Gray, a veteran starter who recently returned from injury. “To be able to come in now and do a really good job, it feels amazing.”The D-backs rallied in the eighth when pinch-hitter Emmanuel Rivera led off with a double against Chapman. Geraldo Perdomo followed with an RBI single, making it 3-1.
It was Seager's fifth homer this post-season. The shortstop also was one of the heroes of Game 1 in this Fall Classic, belting a tying homer in the ninth that helped rally the Rangers to a 6-5 victory in 11 innings on García's homer. García — a Gold Glove finalist who has one of the best arms in the big leagues — threw a 94.6 m.p.h. rocket to the plate to cut down Walker.
