The Texas Rangers celebrated their first-ever World Series championship by unveiling a banner at Globe Life Field before their season opener against the Chicago Cubs. The banner, which commemorated their historic achievement, was dropped from the roof support high above right field. Commissioner’s Trophy was also brought to home plate by manager Bruce Bochy and pitcher Josh Sborz, who recorded the final out in the clinching Game 5 against the Arizona Diamondbacks in November.
Championship rings are set to be presented before the second game of the series on Saturday night. This victory marks the Rangers’ first championship in their 52nd season in Texas and 63rd overall for the franchise that began play in 1961.
Texas had previously come close to winning the World Series in 2010 and 2011 but fell short in both instances. Rangers’ pitcher Max Scherzer, who was on the Washington Nationals’ championship team in 2019, expressed his desire to enjoy the celebration with the fans this time after experiencing a virtual ring ceremony due to COVID-19 restrictions in 2020. Cubs manager Craig Counsell, who had won a World Series himself, admitted to feeling a sense of envy as he watched the ceremony unfold from the opposing dugout.
The Rangers’ fans were ecstatic as they witnessed history being made at Globe Life Field. Many took to social media to share their excitement and express gratitude towards the team for bringing glory to Texas. As for Bochy, he couldn’t help but feel proud of his players for achieving such a monumental feat and encouraged them to savor every moment of it.
In conclusion, this is a day that will go down in history as one of the most significant moments for not just Texas Rangers but also Major League Baseball as a whole. It’s been a long time coming for this franchise and its fans, and finally, they have something to celebrate!
