Rangers subdue D-backs in Game 3 behind Corey Seager, bullpen

PHOENIX -- The Texas Rangers' incredible postseason road winning streak continued in Game 3 of the World Series on Monday night with a 3-1 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks that was fueled by a prodigious home run from Corey Seager and a masterful bullpen performance from Jon Gray.

The Rangers, with a 2-1 lead in this best-of-seven series, are now two wins away from their first championship in franchise history -- but their latest victory came with a heavy price.

Max Scherzer exited his start after three innings with a back injury and Adolis Garcia, who has done most of the heavy lifting for Texas' offense this month, came out of the game grabbing at his left side after a flyout to end the eighth inning.
