The Rangers beat the Diamondbacks 3-1 in Game 3 to take a 2-1 World Series lead.
Texas Rangers’ Corey Seager rounds the bases after hitting a two-run home run during the third inning in Game 3 of the World Series against the Arizona Diamondbacks, Monday, Oct. 30, 2023, in Phoenix., a 3-1 Texas Rangers win over the Diamondbacks, powered by the thunder in Corey Seager’s bat and the resurgent arm of Jon Gray.
Next question: If Scherzer’s back is an issue, do you save Gray to start a potential Game 7 or do you bring him back as fast as possible, which might be for Game 5? As a reliever, he’s been a weapon.The first concern with “side tightness” is always an oblique muscle. The Rangers simply can’t afford to lose García, the ALCS MVP. He’s hit eight homers and driven in 22 runs during the postseason. It’s a single-season MLB record.
Pfaadt’s first pitch was a fat fastball on the inside third of the plate at about belt level. Seager does bad things to those kinds of pitches. He turned it into a 421-foot homer to right that left the bat at 114.5 mph. It was the single hardest hit ball by Seager this season or playoffs.The Rangers got some big hits over the first three innings to build a lead, but the defense deserves equal credit for not letting them fall into an early hole.
