PHOENIX — Arizona's sterling defense stumbled at the worst time. Gold Glove first baseman Christian Walker ended a record run of perfect fielding at the World Series in the third inning of Game 4, opening the door for a second straight five-run inning by the Texas Rangers. Walker and the Diamondbacks went on to an 11-7 loss. They trail the Rangers 3-1 in the best-of-seven Series going into Game 5 on Wednesday in Arizona. Walker's error on Jonah Heim's grounder came after a wild pitch by Arizona's Luis Frias led to a five-run second inning for the Rangers.
