Diamondbacks completely melt down in Game 5 to lose World Series

Three batters later, Marcus Semien put the exclamation point on the win with a two-run home run to left-center field.

That was the dagger.

Semien’s 2-run home run made it 5-0, which stood as the final score.

Josh Sborz, who got the final seven outs of the game for Texas, put together a 1-2-3 ninth to seal the victory. The D-backs' meltdown in the ninth gave Texas its first World Series ever.

Corey Seager, who went 2-for-4 with a walk, run scored and the first hit for the Rangers of Game 5, was named World Series MVP. He is just the fourth player in MLB history to be named World Series MVP twice.

Between the way the Diamondbacks ended Game 5 and the way they shot themselves in the foot in Game 3, Arizona blew a lot of chances in the Fall Classic.
