Reflections on a 4-3 Rangers victory

Rangers 4, Dodgers 3

• Adolis Garcia has quite a flair for the dramatic.
• Towards the seventh round, I had resigned myself to a loss of rangers. I mentally started to talk about the fact that there were positive points of the rangers offense, well -struck balls that did not fall, or if it was even worth mentioning the day after a second consecutive defeat where the pitch was good but the offensive went flat.
• When Josh Smith’s fly ball on the right-of-right field line landed, I got it like another example of bats that are getting closer, but not entirely able to obtain the result that was necessary. I felt that it summed up the game, from the point of view of the offensive.
• And then Smith sent a separator in the other direction, against an inner field to move it to shoot, for a double head. And then Adolis Garcia sent a quick ball from Kirby Yates to the left ground seats, a bullet that Garcia knew that it had known since the moment he struck him, and everything was in the world of baseball, at least for today.
• Nathan Eovaldi experienced a solid outing, performing six heats and granting three points, all in the fourth round. A single of Mookie Betts was followed by Freddie Freeman crushing a cutter on the left where he could reach him and send him to the seats. The third round was not won due to a strange Eovaldi error. With Two Out and Michael Comforto first, Eovaldi turned around and made a boost to the first goal. The problem was that Josh Smith, the first base player, did not hold comforto, and therefore the ball was launched to anyone, which moves away and allowing Comforto to go to second. When Max Muncy followed this with a double of the soil rule, the result was that Comforto scored instead of having to hold third.
• Robert Garcia had an eventful seventh, emitting a walk, then removing the runner and abandoning a double of two outings. He also withdrew the first and last strikers from the Manche appearance. Jacob Webb launched the eighth and ninth rounds, in what seemed to be an outing “good, at least he kept near” before Adolis Garcia was at the rescue.
• During a large part of the game, Kyle Higashioka had the only two strokes of Rangers – a two -point circuit in the third, leading to Dustin Harris, who had walked, and a single in fifth. Corey Seager struck a ball in the other direction in the first which would have been a circuit, but for Andy Pages which exceed the fence to hang it for an outing, but that does not count. Marcus Semien had a single in the eighth for the third hit Rangers. Then, of course, the rangers went 2 for 2 in the ninth.
• Joc Pederson was again safe and was lifted for the pinch shot Jake Burger when the dodgers went to a left -hander. A weak return to a 2-0 field of Roki Sasaki, accompanied by a strong explanative, seemed to summarize the current difficulties of Pederson. With Wyatt Langford expected to return from the injured list on Sunday, I would not be surprised if Pederson withdrew.
• Nathan Eovaldi reached 95.6 MPH on his fast ball, with an average of 93.6 MPH. Robert Garcia hit 94.9 MPH on his quick ball. Jacob Webb’s quick ball reached a maximum of 93.6 MPH.
• Adolis Garcia had a field of 110.3 mi / h and a Home Run of 105.6 MPH. Corey Seager came out of 103.7 MPH. Josh Jung came out of 103.2 MPH. Kyle Higashioka had a 100.7 MPH home run.
• The Rangers remain in first place and seek to take the series on Sunday.
