Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager hit a game-tying home run in the ninth inning of World Series Game 1.
The Texas Rangers won Game 1 in thrilling walk-off fashion but there is still plenty of World Series left to go beginning with Game 2 at Globe Life Field.ARLINGTON, Texas — Of all the games for Nathan Eovaldi to have a less than optimal start in the postseason, Game 1 of the World Series was not one that thewere hoping for. Ultimately, Eovaldi’s hiccup just added to the drama in what would become one of the biggest victories in franchise history.
Garcia accomplished the new mark by cranking a signature opposite field home run to the right field bleachers. The legend of the ALCS MVP continued to grow in Game 1 as he hit the first game-winning home run in the opener of a World Series since Kirk Gibson’s famed Game 1 winner in 1988.Arizona Diamondbacks @ Texas Rangers , 7:03 PM CST.
Jordan Montgomery has been neck and neck with Eovaldi for Texas’ best starter this postseason. Down the stretch for the Rangers, the 30-year old lefty was the most consistent pitcher since coming over from St. Louis at the trade deadline. In the regular season, Montgomery was 10-11 with a 3.20 ERA, often being a hard-luck loser and pitching when the offense wasn’t at its best.
The presence of the American League Championship Series MVP is strong, but with Garcia riding a hot streak in the middle of the lineup throughout the postseason, he just needs people on base in front of him. Just get in scoring position and El Bombi will do the rest.– In the regular season, All-Star Jonah Heim caught 24 runners trying to steal, good for a 29% rate. He solidified himself as one of the best defensive catchers in the game and is up for a Gold Glove award.
