Here's Corey Seeger who swings and drives one deep to
right it sails Corey Seager with a line drive home
run. He's given Texas a 3 to 0 lead
game three of this best of seven World Series long
time since a World Series game played in Phoenix 2001
to be exact. Guess who could find in the
ceremonial first pitch, Randy to legends forever. What
about for Brandon fot making his World Series debut for
Scherzer? It's postseason start, number 25 postseason appearance
, number 38 and a ovation for the crowd at
chase field. They want to get him going the
first one that he sees right center field. Well
, he responded. Brown got him fired up and
he just delivered the right center field. That's a
big shot. Fergus Walker runs through the stop sign
Garcia Tony Pera given a clear stop sign to Christian
Walker who just barreled through it and one of the
best arms in baseball makes him pay players the one
th put a stop. Unreal Josh young bare hands
, the deflection and ends the second inning. Here
comes that man, Marcus Simeon who flat out his
first lifted to left center Thomas on the move not
going to get there. Marcus Simeon, he comes
through with a base hit to left center field.
Rangers strike first in game three. I think they're
deciding right now if they want to put Seager on
base, not going to give him anything good to
hit right here. You got a right hander Garcia
coming up next, Corey Seager smashes Corey Seager with
a long drive home run, a good dozen rows
into the seats in right Seeger with five World Series
home runs and runs batted in his home runs out
in a hurry. Max Scherzer leaving the game with
what has been described as back rangers do not know
if it stemmed from being struck with the batting ball
. We knew it hit him, it hits him
off the elbow first, never want to get hit
on your pitching arm, but he did the right
thing by coming out of the game and that is
not easy to do and grade is going to come
in coming off that incredible performance in game one.
How about John Gray two out now, the first
one to Marte line drive off the glove of Simeon
into right field, a base hit glover thought that
he had it and then looked down as if to
say right, you deserted me. That is a
hit Johnny and it extends the hitting streak to a
record setting 19 games to open his post career.
The ride, they immediately will silence the crowd as
Garcia makes the grab, John Gray two games in
this World series four and two thirds no runs seven
. Ks Joe Ali Garcia left the game with left
side tightness. He was sort of doubled over in
the tunnel to see how he is afterwards. That
is never, never whether a pitcher or a hitter
, especially hitter, a good sign. John buckle
up for the Aroldis Chapman experience. 1009. The
guys coming up they want here. He said,
and it's high Arizona and taking strike, he's fooled
on a slider that is right in the heart of
the plate. Bruce is going to roll the dice
here and keep him in against Marte. You mentioned
that home run. He hit the ground, gets
there in time at first, a double play and
Bruce quotes, you can't help but crack a little
smile there. Nice stab by Coy Seeger on a
hard ground ball just to his left. The Rangers
turned it 643 deep drive to center field. Thomas
has time and sell it. It is a joy
to watch him roam center field at chase field,
Texas trying to stay perfect on the road this postseason
. It is a strike in the yes ball four
is just called strike 23 to 2 pitch ground ball
to third. Young's got it one gone in the
ninth instead of the leadoff walk here spam now has
a chance to keep it alive for the Diamondbacks finish
is off a 1239. And what a Texas turnaround
here in game three from losing 9 to 1 in
game two to winning 3 to 1 and retaking the
lead in the series. We preached about this all
year. You know, it's a pass the time
mentality for us. Um You don't always have to
be the guy that day. Um And that's comforting
here that, that takes stress off people and we've
done, we've done a good job of that and
we're hoping to continue to do it. This is
what you play for. This is what you,
where you want to be at this moment. So
having experience with this and fortunately for me, having
experience with this, it's always kind of driven me
, you know, I was fortunate enough to be
a part of some good teams and experience these things
. So this is definitely the motivation for me right
now. We're going to, I just evaluate him
. Uh go, we'll get some diagnostics done,
see where he's at left side, tightness. Uh
We're being optimistic there, but we'll know more tomorrow
. Same with Max. Uh Max took a pretty
good shot on the elbow. That's what we were
concerned about, but it was his low back that
tightened up on him. He just couldn't go anymore
. And same with him, we'll see where he's
at in the next 24 hours and decide where we're
at with him and I think they showed what they
mean to us with their outstanding play. I mean
, John Gray stepped in when we lost Max there
and he did a terrific job, didn't he?
You know, but those guys, you know,
they, they're the type of guys that can turn
a franchise around and, and signed them and made
this club that much better at very critical times,
um, of the game, whether it's in the
first inning, second inning, you just don't know
what's gonna happen. We've been really good at being
able to execute at a high level. Um Yeah
, I feel like that was a huge man in
the swing. You know, you're looking at 1st
and 3rd, potentially in the outs, we may
have scored a bunch of runs. You just don't
know what would happen. We should have been better
in that situation. Christian Walker owned it, he
accepted it, he was accountable for his actions.
And I know, um I, I will still
consider him one of my, our best instinctual base
runners. I'm not gonna lie. It hurt,
it hurt a little bit and they turned around on
us to score three runs and that was a big
moment. We got flat in there for a couple
of days at the end of the day. We
, we do have to be done. I think
our offense is um, very capable against any type
of pitching, whether it's a lie or a starter
. We just got beat, we got beat,
we got maybe out executed. Um And we got
, we got to figure that out. We're all
familiar um with Aaron's accomplishments on the field. He's
the reigning American League MVP. But equally important are
his accomplishments off the field. Um He started the
All Rise Foundation in 2018. Um They provided leadership
and character training to over 2000 kids, a list
of accomplishments. And you know, Aaron, you
are like so many of your fellow players, a
real credit to it. We are so proud Aaron
that you are the recipient of the Roberto Clemente Award
this year. What you're doing, inspiring them to
become incredible human beings and, and citizens. It's
, it's really truly amazing. That's what our father
was sure, made sure to do with his legacy
. Welcome to the Clemente family of award winners.
Uh We believe that your true example of a great
human being. Um It is actually what it's all
about and, and you are leading the charge of
all these great players today, leaving a great legacy
, you're building your own and we're very, very
proud that you are the winner is here, the
legacy your father left. He was, you know
, we can sit here and talk about the stats
, what he did on the field. You know
, he was a generational talent on the field,
but he was a generational, you know, ambassador
for this game off the field. He grew the
game. And that's something I want to continue to
do is continue to grow the game. You know
, just the lives we touch. It's just the
beginning, you know, just, you know,
this is just another, you know, step along
the way and, you know, I'm part of
the Roberto Clemente family, which is such a amazing
group, you know, listing the previous winners.
It's, uh you know, it's tough to,
tough to put in the words what that means.
So, thank you guys truly blessed for more on
these and other stories. Keep it locked at MLB
dot com. It's baseball everywhere.
