It's over! The Texas Rangers defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks Wednesday night in Phoenix with a 5-0 shutout and etched their names into World Series lore.

Hannah Keyser and Zach Crizer report from their hotel rooms in Arizona after the jubilant and bear-soaked celebration of the Texas Rangers cementing their first World Series win in the team's history.

They chat about Game 5's epically tight pitching matchup (despite the epically not-tight final score), whether the Arizona Diamondbacks can rebound with more playoff appearances in the future, how Texas' roster-building strategy paid off and how much longer Bruce Bochy will manage the team after his mind-blowing fourth World Series win.
