Diamondbacks’ Fans Celebrate Small Victory Against Rangers’ As Nathan Eovaldi Replaced by Aroldis Chapman

The trust fans have in the Arizona Diamondbacks is unmatched! They know inside out how the game will turn out henceforth. Congratulations flow in as Aroldis Chapman starts to warm up in the Rangers’ bullpen. With that, things look up for Arizona though currently at a 0-1. 

Replacing the 33-year-old Nathan Eovaldi, Chapman, relief pitcher takes to the field. Arizona’s fans predict that the victory leans on their side. A tweet from @BNightengale made it evident that folks know the course of Game 5 from here on. 

Is It The Right Thing To Celebrate Already?

The tweet by Bob Nighengale is captioned, “Aroldis Chapman now warming up in the Rangers’ bullpen. Nate Eovaldi is at 97 pitches”. Now that it is out in the open, one can’t contain the excitement of how Wednesday night’s game will unfold. Will victory lean toward the Snakes? Or will the World Series wind up today? Well, as the ball is in D-Backs’ court, only time will tell. 

Contrary to the emotions among fans, things did look bright for the Texas Rangers soon after. For six scoreless innings, Nathan Eovaldi lived up to his image as a big-league pitcher. He managed by coming in and out of jams. Before the Rangers finally got their first hit and run off Arizona ace Zac Gallen in the seventh inning, Gallen threw the much-needed, six scoreless innings. What happened next made the win quite inevitable.

After keeping Arizona off the board for the final three innings, Aroldis Chapman and Josh Sborz took four more off Paul Sewald, the D-Backs’ closer to secure the historic victory. This also counts as an unprecedented 11-0 road record for Texas in the postseason. There was another Texan who gave the game a finishing touch and sealed the deal.

The Finishing Touch That Led To A Historic Win

It was Corey Seager who propelled the game into a checkmate. He ended the Rangers’ hitless streak and came around to score Mitch Garver’s base hit for the game-winning run, giving Texas a 1-0, soon after which they bagged the final win. As a result, he was crowned the World Series MVP.
