Unfortunately I think we needed to go into game 6 3-2 up to have a chance (and even then it would have been tough) but I just can't see us picking up 2 wins on the road at Philly, especially the way they've been batting all series
Wow, what a way to make it to the World Series! Yet again every pundit and expert before the series started had Phillies to march on, but we had other ideas.
Marte has now played in 16 postseason games and recorded a hit in every single one
Looking forward to what should be a fascinating series between 2 teams few expected to be there but they are both thoroughly deserving. Hoping for a close and long series. With no confidence at all I'll go Rangers in 6.
So frustrating, we just kept walking batsmen you shouldn't walk. The number 9 hitter we walked twice in a row and prolonged innings because of it, and it was our downfall in the end
Thank God for that. Now just need to win the 3 home games and the World Series is ours baby! 🥸
Still slightly disappointed it's not 2-0 already but if you asked me at the start if I'll take 1-1 going into the 3rd game then I absolutely would have
Rangers back in front with a 3-1 win in Arizona last night. Pfaat pitched pretty well for the DBacks but the problem they have is that the Rangers have Corey Seager, the best hitter on either team. Keep him quiet and the DBacks still have a decent chance.
DBacks made it a bit more respectable late on but Rangers win 11-7 and are now 1 win away from winning the Series. Amazingly they have now won all 10 Post Season games on the road.
Need something special now, but still not counting out the DBacks to win the next 2 to make it 3-3, just the kind of thing we've done every time we've been written off
Shame we couldn't do it at the final hurdle, but what a season!
Texans going 11-0 on the road in the postseason is absolutely unheard of, and to think in 2021 they lost 102 games, and the Diamondbacks lost even more that season at 110!
From a personal standpoint, I can't wait to see this young team develop together, Thomas, Carroll Perdomo and Moreno in particular, we have a couple of fantastic prospects too in Lawlar and Druw Jones (son of 10 time Gold Glove winner Andruw Jones) and Marte is one of the best players in the league right now.
Congrats to the Rangers on winning their first World Series. Gallen actually pitched very well for the DBacks but their offence missed a number of chances to give them the lead before Texas started to hit late on. The Rangers superior hitting was probably the key, but this game and particularly Game 1 could easily have gone the other way.

Just as the Diamondbacks are on the brink of forcing their own Game 7 against the Phillies - leading 5-1 after eight innings.

Diamondbacks led 5-3 until the bottom of the 9th inning.

Had the hat for a while, finally got the jersey to match for my birthday today! Let's Go DBacks!
