The 2023 MLB playoffs have not been short of high drama. Game 1 of the World Series delivered even more thanks to Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager.

Texas trailed 5-3 to the Arizona Diamondbacks entering the bottom of the ninth inning. Rangers centerfielder Leody Tavares drew a leadoff walk against D-Backs closer Paul Sewald.

Seager then tied the game up with one swing of the bat. The 29-year-old slugger came up to the plate with one out and clobbered a first-pitch fastball to the right-field bleachers at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas.

Seager let his emotions immediately take over as he left the batter’s box. He clearly knew the ball was gone the moment he made contact. This angle of Seager’s reaction would likely give every Rangers fan chills.

Seager’s clutch homer led to extra innings in the opening game of the 2023 World Series. The Rangers would ultimately end up walking it off in the bottom of the 11th inning on a solo homer by ALCS MVP Adolis Garcia.
