Corey Seager got the ball rolling for the Rangers with a powerful home run in the first inning of Game 7. His contribution helped establish an early lead and set the momentum for the team.
Seager’s strong start served as a catalyst for the Rangers’ offensive explosion throughout the game.
No team has managed to win consecutive World Series titles since the New York Yankees accomplished this feat from 1998-200.
The Texas Rangers now embark on their quest to achieve what has proven to be highly elusive in recent times.
