Corey Seager hit a two-run home run and made a crucial defensive play to help lift the Rangers to a 3-1 victory in Game 3 of the World Series.
Corey Seager launched a two-run homer and made a slick defensive play in the eighth inning to start a crucial double play, Max Scherzer combined with four relievers for a gem on the mound and the Texas Rangers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 3-1 to take a 2-1 lead in the World Series on Monday night. Texas overcame injuries to Scherzer and slugger Adolis García in improving to 9-0 on the road this postseason.
But then Chapman worked out of the jam — striking out Corbin Carroll before Seager started a clutch double play, sliding on his knees to field a hot smash from Ketel Marte before flipping to Marcus Semien at second, who threw to first. After García threw out Walker, the Rangers used a three-run third to take the early advantage. Semien's two-out single into left center made it 1-0 and then Seager smashed his no-doubt homer deep into the right-field seats.
