The Houston Astros had their usual crowd in Game 7 against the state rival Texas Rangers, but the fans weren’t enough to upset the visiting opponents, who ended up losing 11-4.

That means the Astros’ dream won’t be repeated.

Adolis Garcia is a man who appears too calm and collected in front of a hostile crowd.

The 30-year-old outfielder may have been trying to get a feel for the game in his first four at-bats, but the timing was right and he struck out in his next at-bat.

He hit the ball with the same ferocity, sending the ball to the left field seats at 110.1 mph.

Garcia’s performance in Game 7 proved just how good he has been in the postseason. He won the ACLS MVP award and ended his American League playoff career.

Garcia’s teammates and coaching staff couldn’t explain how he overcame the overly excited crowd.

But what they were sure of was that he was one of them. Bench coach Donnie Ek even compared him to NBA legend Michael Jordan.

“In Game 1, he had a moment after his second at-bat,” Ek said after the Game 7 win.

“I walked up to him and said, ‘The only player I’ve ever seen get booed like that on the road is Michael Jordan. Like, man, how lucky are you?’ That brought out the best in him. (He ) is a very special person, I can’t even quantify it.”

Garcia and the rest of the Rangers will face the winner of the Arizona Diamondbacks versus Philadelphia Phillies in the World Series.
