Nathan Eovaldi responded to an early lead in Game 1 of the World Series by striking out the side in a shutdown inning. The Texas Rangers right-hander gave up three hits in a span of four batters after striking out four in a row and was on the hook for his first loss after wins in his first four postseason starts this year. Corey Seager's tying two-run homer in the ninth inning left Eovaldi with a no-decision, and Adolis García's homer in the 11th gave Texas a 6-5 win and a 1-0 Series lead.
