Texas Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia hit a walk-off home run in the bottom of the 11th inning in World Series Game 1.
The Texas Rangers and Arizona Diamondbacks squared off in Game 1 of the World Series at Globe Life Field in Arlington.ARLINGTON, Texas — The Texas Rangers' Corey Seager launched a game-tying two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning to send the game to extra innings, and Adolis Garcia hit a walkoff homer in the 11th to beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-5 in Game 1 of the World Series.
Then, two innings later, Adolis Garcia launched an opposite-field solo homer off Miguel Castro to win the game in walkoff fashion. The home run also gave Garcia the all-time record for most runs batted in for a single postseason, with 22. Eovaldi had started the game with swing-and-miss stuff, and mowed through the Diamondbacks' first six hitters. But Arizona hit Eovaldi hard on their second turn through the order, and the Texas offense, while it kept pressuring Diamondbacks starter Zac Gallen, couldn't keep pace until Seager's homer.
But Arizona answered with a two-run triple from rookie Corbin Carroll in the third, scoring Alek Thomas and Evan Longoria. The Diamondbacks' Tommy Pham homered in the fourth, and Marte doubled in the fifth to put Arizona up 5-3. Jon Gray, a Texas starter who returned from injury in the American League Championship Series as a reliever, worked the late innings for the Rangers, and lefty Will Smith got the final two outs in the top of the ninth.
