World Series Game 2: Rangers lose to D-backs 9-1; series tied 1-1
The Texas Rangers dropped Game 2 of the World Series to the D-backs 9-1, and now head to Arizona with the series tied 1-1.
"This hat right here."
"I cross my fingers, and sometimes I don’t look if it’s going to be ball three."
"We went to the NLCS games and we got these towels for the 3rd and 4th game, so we got those, hopefully, that’s the magic."
Even players like Corbin Carroll believe.
"I mean, I guess for the post-season run it’s been the hat choice that’s had the impact. I got to wear the same hat until we lose, then it’s got to go. So that’s been my superstition I guess," he said.
Does this have any impact on how the team plays?
Of course not, but that’s still part of the fun.
