The reigning champion Texas Rangers opened their season with a win. Catcher Jonah Heim was involved, to say the least.
The All-Star catcher opened the door for the Chicago Cubs to take a lead in the top of the ninth inning but ended up being the hero in extra innings of a 4-3 victory on his team's World Series banner night.
The drama began with Cubs pinch-hitter Miles Mastrobuoni facing Rangers closer José Leclerc with two outs and runners on first and second.
