The Texas Rangers kept up their sensational play on the road, shutting out the Diamondbacks 5-0 in Game Five of the World Series in Arizona on Wednesday and delivering the franchise its first Major League Baseball championship.

Diamondbacks ace Zac Gallen took a no-hitter into the seventh inning but gave up three consecutive hits beginning with a single to Corey Seager and ending with an RBI up the middle to Mitch Garver that broke up the scoreless affair.
