A number of MLB postseason teams have learned an important lesson during the playoffs: Underestimate the Arizona Diamondbacks at your own risk. The Texas Rangers got a taste of that in Game 2. After a dramatic walk-off win in Game 1, the Rangers were humbled by the Diamondbacks in a 9-1 Arizona win.
On paper, the Rangers should have the edge in Game 3. Three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer is on the mound for Texas. He’s opposed by D-backs rookie Brandon Pfaadt, who posted a 5.72 ERA in 18 regular-season starts. But Pfaadt has looked much better in the postseason, in which he has a 2.70 ERA over four starts, while Scherzer has had a bit of a rough go in these playoffs, with a 9.45 ERA in two outings.
The first blows came from the Rangers, who scored three runs in the third thanks to the bats of Nathaniel Lowe, Marcus Semien and Corey Seager, who hit yet another home run to make it 3-0.
