prior to Chapman’s insertion into the game. “What a job he did, that was really impressive, the stuff he threw.”Chapman hadn’t pitched prior to Tuesday since Sep. 12 in Toronto. The seven-day layoff, Bochy confirmed pregame, had less to do with Chapman and more to do with the rest of Texas’ bullpen. By way of early blowouts, busted starts and a shaky relief bridge into the eighth inning, Bochy hadn’t seen many opportunities to insert the seven-time All-Star into any games.

After starter Nathan Eovaldi pitched five innings of three-run ball, Chris Stratton followed with a scoreless sixth inning before starter-turned-reliever Andrew Heaney took the seventh. Heaney gave up a one-out double to Dalbec and walked No. 9 hitter Luis Urias before inducing a double-play-worthy groundball from Alex Verdugo; shortstop Corey Seager fielded it and missed second baseman Marcus Semien with his throw, allowing Dalbec to score the tying run.
