Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy has named Nathan Eovaldi as the starting pitcher for Game 1 of the World Series on Friday.
Eovaldi will face off against Arizona Diamondbacks right-hander Zac Gallen. The Arizona ace is 2-2 in the postseason with a 5.24 ERA in 22.1 innings. He's recorded 13 strikeouts and has a 1.48 WHIP.
The Rangers are undefeated this postseason when Eovaldi makes a start. His four wins are the most ever by a Texas pitcher in one postseason and tie the career mark for playoff wins in club history set by Colby Lewis.
His 28 strikeouts this postseason rank second to only Philadelphia’s Zack Wheeler and are the second-most ever by a Ranger in one postseason . Eovaldi and Wheeler are also just the sixth and seventh pitchers in MLB history to post 28+ SO and four-or-fewer BB over their first four outings of a postseason, last done by LAD’s Clayton Kershaw in 2020 .
