The Arizona Diamondbacks are turning to their ace Zac Gallen in Game 1 of the World Series. Gallen, who has endured his share of ups and downs so far during the postseason, addressed his upcoming Game 1 start against the Texas Rangers in Arlington.
“I said it after the two [NLCS] starts, just a lack of execution, really,” Gallen said, per Paul Casella of MLB.com. “No secret, I feel like I didn’t help the guys that much. So I’m looking to try and pull my weight this time around.”
Winning at least one game in Texas would be ideal. Although, Arizona dropped the first two games of the NLCS versus the Philadelphia Phillies on the road yet still ended up winning the series. Still, they would like to avoid that same initial approach against the Rangers.
Gallen is focused on tying to give the Diamondbacks a strong chance of earning a victory in Game 1.
