In Game 1 of the World Series, he hit a walk-off home run in the 11th inning, becoming the first player since Kirk Gibson in 1988 to do so in Game 1. Garcia has homered in five consecutive playoff games, just one shy of the major league record, and has a total of eight home runs and 22 RBIs this postseason.
