Rangers outfielder Adolis Garcia has been tormenting the Astros throughout the ALCS. That continued during Monday’s Game 7 when he obliterated a solo home run to extend Texas’s early lead.
Garcia crushed the ball the opposite way off Houston’s Hunter Brown, sending it far over the wall in right field. The no-doubt home run traveled 368 feet, as the 30-year-old gave the Rangers a 4–1 lead.
The moment was exciting from the standard broadcast. But the view from the ump cam offers a truly magnificent perspective, from which fans can see both the ball leaving the field and Garcia’s instant reaction.

Garcia could be seen admiring his home run while slowly walking out of the batter’s box, before turning around and shouting in the direction of the ump cam as he takes off to trot around the bases.
The solo shot marks Garcia’s fourth consecutive game with a home run, including his late grand slam in Sunday’s Game 6, and his sixth homer of the postseason.
