I wished this guy would come into the game and pitch with a beer instead of a glove.

Not to keep bringing it up but does anybody know what Maldonado said to Garcia right after he was hit. It was such an automatic reaction from Garcia that I thought was a little wierd. Usually they just start charging the pitcher but it looked like Garcia was more intent on Maldonado. I was watching on my phone at the time with no sound and didnt catch any of he post game stuff. Meant to ask the other day but didnt really feel like talking baseball at the time.

I think they have a little history, plus he knew a bean ball would be called, plus I think Garcia didn't want to get thrown out and knew charging the mound would do that.

But the postgame didn't really discuss what he said to Maldonado, no.

BTW, Maldonado 's reaction is one reason I think it was intentional. Somehow he didn't seem like he was arguing very hard that it wasn't. Just looked like a guilty person accused of something he actually did.

Just saw a clip on TikTok where they asked Garcia this in the post-game press conference.

His response was the he just reacted and wanted to let them know that they could have Injured him and they shouldn't have done it.

Amazing atmosphere last night.

This has been a really fun series and a great experience overall.

Like I thought, the Rangers could and would win if they got to Framber Valdez early, and they did just that.

I honestly don't know how tonight is going to go, but I have a feeling that 4 runs is all it's going to take for someone to win.

I think it's gonna be similar to how I felt about game 5 in that I think this one is gonna be about who gets on the board first.

May the best team win!

Someone explain to me how neither team has won a home game in this series. That’s just bizarre.

it does bode well for the Rangers, I must say.

Same thing happened with the Astros/Nationals WS in 2019.

No one won a single home game.
