Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Paul Sewald walks to the dugout after giving up two runs the Texas Rangers in the ninth inning in Game 1 of the baseball World Series Friday, Oct. 27, 2023, in Arlington, Texas. Arizona Diamondbacks relief pitcher Miguel Castro watches Texas Rangers’ Adolis Garcia game-winning home run during the 11th inning in Game 1 of the baseball World Series Friday, Oct. 27, 2023, in Arlington, Texas. The Rangers won 6-5.
Sewald entered with a 5-3 lead against the Texas Rangers in the ninth inning. He started No. 9 hitter Leody Tavares with a called strike and walked him on four straight fastballs, the first high and the next three outside. “You don’t anticipate giving up a two-run home run and tying the score in the bottom of the ninth inning with one out,” Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said. “You’re kind of counting it backwards and you’re thinking in a very positive way. So the shock factor was very high.”
Diamondbacks pitchers lost their grip in the World Series opener. They walked 10, and three of those runners scored, including Seager in the first and third innings.
