Texas, which is on the brink of "Win and Loss," will "Autumn Man" Save

Fate hung on the shoulder of "Autumn Man."

The Texas Rangers will play Game 6 of the 2023 Major League Postseason American League Championship Series ALCS against the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park in Houston, Texas on the 23rd.

Texas showed tremendous momentum early in the postseason. Met the Tampa Bay Rays in the wild card series. Tampa Bay has performed well this season with a 99-63 record, but advanced to the postseason as the No. 1 wild card in the East Division standings, behind Baltimore. It was a strong team. However, Texas won two games and advanced to the division series.

The opponent Texas met in the division series was Baltimore. Baltimore finished the regular season 101-61, successfully rebuilding this season. He ranked first overall in the American League. However, Texas won three consecutive games against Baltimore, confirming its ALCS advance.

In the ALCS, the Lone Star Series was held against Houston. The gusts of wind continued in Texas. They won both the first and second games on the road. He won seven consecutive postseason games.

However, Houston's "defending champion" counterattack was also strong. Houston won all of Games 3 and 5 at Texas' home globe life field. In particular, in Game 5, Jose Altuve's come-from-behind three-run home run in the top of the ninth inning with Texas leading 4-2. The series was also overturned.

Texas needs to win both of its remaining two games to reach the World Series stage. And Nathan Ivaldi will be the starting pitcher for Game 6.

Ivaldi is a "big game feature" who showed strong performance in the postseason. He pitched in 14 games 9 starts and recorded a 2.87 WHIP per-inning on-base percentage of 0.94, with 65 strikeouts and 62 ⅔ innings.

He pitched in three games this season and became the winning pitcher in all of them, with 24 strikeouts in 19 ⅔ innings and a 2.29 WHIP average of 0.86. In the second ALCS game held on the 17th, he pitched well with three runs three earned runs and five hits (two home runs) in six innings with one out and nine strikeouts.

Ivaldi should repeat his good pitching in the second game in Game 6. The Major League's official website 'MLB ' said on the 22nd, "Ivaldi took the opportunity to prove his spirit again. "After winning the second game, I said I was ready to adapt," he said.


Ivaldi said: "I felt a little mechanically off the pitch. I think I've adapted to it, he said. "I hope I can control it a little bit better and leave everything behind for the game."

"Obviously, pitchers will pitch a little differently depending on how aggressive Houston players are," he said. "That's what the pitcher prepares for and that's what the pitcher is prepared for." https://www.toto365.pro
