“I mean, it’s hard to get a bigger home run than what he did there down two in the ninth,” said Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy, “ You know, he saved us there, but you can see it in him, he got everybody fired up.” It was the first run Sewald has given up all postseason and only the fourth hit he’s allowed in nine innings of work.Rangers third baseman Josh Jung shared what he felt watching the ball leave Seager’s bat.
“Wow, he did it again, he’s done it for years in the postseason and he just did it again for us and see him yell as soon as he it he knew it was going to go a mile,” said Jung, “There’s no words you’re just really happy they’re suiting up for us.”On Friday Seager went 1-for-4 with a home run, two walks, two RBIs and three runs scored.
“It was a cool moment for sure,” said Seager, “This is the playoffs, you know, this is kind of what it’s all about.”Seager has already dominated while playing at Globe Life Field in the World Series, winning the 2020 World Series MVP for the Los Angeles Dodgers who played the series at GLF due to the pandemic.Lawrence Dow is a digital sports reporter from Philadelphia.
