Texas Rangers right fielder Adolis Garcia left in the eighth inning of Game 3 of the World Series with an apparent injury, as he appeared to have hurt his back during the swing.
Manager Bruce Bochy said that Garcia has suffered from left-side tightness and the Rangers were optimistic about his condition.
“Doli will get some diagnostics done. [We’ll] see where he’s at,” Bochy said. “He’s a complete player. Speed, arm, can hit. The guy can do it all. We saw it [in the second inning]. And he’s accurate, too, and he loves to throw. He loves to be challenged.”
Garcia played a significant part in the Rangers’ 3-1 victory over the Diamondbacks, mainly his work on defense, helping get several outs for the Rangers.
