What a way to start the 2023 World Series.

The Texas Rangers took Game 1 over the Arizona Diamondbacks in dramatic fashion, thanks to a game-tying home run by Corey Seager in the bottom of the ninth and a walk-off shot by Adolis García in the 11th.

Game 2 is at 8:03 p.m. ET Saturday at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. The pitching matchup will feature Merrill Kelly for the Diamondbacks and Jordan Montgomery for the Rangers.

As the Diamondbacks look to even the series, second baseman Ketel Marte, who earned America free tacos on Friday, will attempt to make history. If he records a hit in Game 2, he’ll extend his postseason hitting streak to 18 games and set the all-time record for consecutive postseason games with a hit.

García, the Game 1 hero, made history Friday. His winning homer gave him 22 RBI this postseason, the most in a single playoff in AL/NL history. David Freese recorded 21 with the St. Louis Cardinals during the team’s World Series run in 2011.
