- Texas beat Houston with ease to win ALCS 4-3
- Rangers will play Phillies or Diamondbacks in World Series
Adolis García homered twice and drove in five runs as the Texas Rangers reached the World Series with an 11-4 blowout of the Houston Astros in Game 7 of the AL Championship Series on Monday night.
García went deep for the fourth straight game and set a record for RBIs in a postseason series with 15. Corey Seager got things started for the Rangers with a long home run in the first inning, and Nathaniel Lowe also went deep to give Texas – one of six major league teams without a World Series title – their first berth in the Fall Classic since consecutive trips in 2010 and 2011.
