PHOENIX – Travis Jankowski, a late-inning defensive replacement, has rarely seen action at the plate throughout his career in the MLB. However, during Game 4 of the World Series, Jankowski knew there was a chance he would get the opportunity to play. Texas Rangers’ right fielder Adolis García, who had been performing exceptionally well in the postseason, had suffered an oblique injury that would prevent him from playing. Jankowski mentally prepared himself for the possibility and was ready to step in, even though he had never started in a postseason game before. He found out that he would be starting just before the game began and felt a mix of emotions. When he stepped up to bat in the second inning, he hit a single and later scored along with another teammate. The Rangers had an outstanding offensive performance, winning the game 11-7. Jankowski’s contribution was recognized by his teammates, and he was praised for his role in the victory. Although García was unable to play due to his injury, he addressed his teammates before the game, expressing his support for the team and their goal of winning the championship. As the Rangers prepare for their next game and potentially a historic win, they will need to select a new Hitter of the Day, a difficult decision with many outstanding performers on the team.
