November 1 - PHOENIX -- The Texas Rangers are one win away from their first World Series title, and they will ask Nathan Eovaldi to finish off the Arizona Diamondbacks in Game 5 on Wednesday.
The Rangers took the 48,388 fans out of the game early with five-run innings in the second and third.
Texas, which is a record 10-0 on the road in the postseason, will look to complete a perfect away run behind Eovaldi.
Eovaldi allowed five runs on six hits in 4 2/3 innings in Game 1, which Texas won 6-5 in 11 innings.
The Rangers will have to go the rest of the World Series without injured slugger Adolis Garcia, who racked up eight home runs and 22 RBIs in the postseason.
