The Rangers have now won four of their last five and three of those have come when the opposing team scored first. The Rangers had won just two of their first 24 such games this season. The game-time temperature was 97 degrees and still in the mid-90's when Choo stepped to the plate to face reliever Kevin McCarthy in the 10th.

He is the first South Korean batter to hit a home run in Major League Baseball postseason. Despite multiple calls to their council, locals' repeated demands to prohibit parking on pavements have been ignored. In 2019, residents protested outside Dean Trust Ardwick secondary and St Luke's CE primary School over the "ridiculous" parking by parents at pick-up and drop-off times. Choo as a character appeared in Reply 1997, on season 1, episode 8, depicting his days as a high school baseball player in Korea, played by Choo's actual younger brother, actor Min-ki Chu. On April 10, 2016, the Rangers placed Choo on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right calf muscle and was expected to miss 4–6 weeks.
He was traded to the Cleveland Indians along with minor leaguer Shawn Nottingham on July 26, 2006, for first baseman Ben Broussard. ; born July 13, 1982) is a South Korean professional baseball outfielder and designated hitter for the SSG Landers of the KBO League.

Then in the eighth, Choo gave the Rangers an insurance run with a solo home run off right-handed reliever Matt Andriese, giving him his 10th career multi-homer game.
On July 20, Choo extended his on-base streak to 52 games with a lead-off single against the Cleveland Indians; the streak ended on July 21 in a second game against the Indians. Choo's 52-game on-base streak is the longest such single-season streak in Texas Rangers history.Choo was named the 2018 Texas Rangers Player of the Year by the DFW BBWAA chapter. In 2018, Choo earned a selection to his first career Major League Baseball All-Star Game. During that season, he safely reached base in 52 consecutive games, the longest such single-season streak in Texas Rangers history. As of 2018, he led all active major league ballplayers in career hit by pitch, with 132. Choo finished the 2011 season with eight home runs, a .259 batting average, 12 stolen bases, and 36 RBIs while accumulating 78 strikeouts and 36 walks in 313 at-bats.
In the top of the eighth Choo hit a 405 ft solo homer over the right field wall. Choo finished the game a three-run homer away from the elusive "home run cycle". On September 19, 2010, Choo again reached the club of 20 home runs and 20 stolen bases for the second straight year.
In 14 career MLB seasons, Choo has never hit more than 25 home runs in a single season and has a career .447 slugging percentage, which is good, but not true slugger territory. Instead, Choo got the record thanks to his longevity, and that’s thanks to his elite ability to get on-base. Since 2010, Choo ranks 15th in MLB in on-base percentage with a .375 mark. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Choo donated $1,000 to each of the 190 players in the Texas Rangers’ minor league system who were unable to work due to the MLB's shutdown. He also donated $200,000 to the nonprofit Community Chest of Korea to help the city of Daegu, which was the hardest hit city in Korea during the pandemic. Cleveland allowed Choo to play under the condition that he play only one game or less as an outfielder in the first round, and only in two non-consecutive games of the second round.
On May 26, 2018, Choo hit a walk-off home run against Kevin McCarthy of the Kansas City Royals. With 176 career home runs, Choo surpassed Hideki Matsui for the most career home runs by a player born in Asia. Choo, having set a club record for reaching base in 47 consecutive games, was named to his first-career All-Star Game in July.
"It's awful and we're all tired of dealing with the awful behaviour the schools parents inflict on the local residents. We just want to feel safe on our doorstep," Ms Ali added. "It's awful and we're all tired of dealing with the awful behaviour the schools parents inflict on the local residents. We just want to feel safe on our doorstep." The father, Scott Smith, made national headlines by being arrested and removed from a school board meeting after Ziegler blatantly lied to him about his own daughter’s rape. Many parents called for multiple school personnel, particularly division counsel Robert Falconi, to be fired. They also called on all school board members to resign, except the newly-elected, pro-parent board member Tiffany Polifko. What’s remarkable about Choo taking the home run crown is that he’s really not known as a big home run producer.
