'A jersey for all of Texas'? MLB overhypes Rangers' City Connect uniforms.

The"TX" logo featured on the caps and jersey is influenced by the gothic lettering used by the Dallas Eagles, the city's Texas League team from 1949 to 1957. It also includes a spur as a tribute to the Dallas-Fort Worth Spurs, the Texas League team that played in Arlington before the Rangers came to town in 1972. The font for the jersey numbers comes from what was used on a championship medal given to the Fort Worth Panthers when they won the Texas League in 1920.

The folks who live in Dallas are really just 90 miles away from being Oklahomans, but they still have something in common with every other Texan: Unabashed pride in the Lone Star State. Besides introducing the uniforms behind the music of BigXthaPlug's"Texas" —— the Rangers went for Texans' hearts with a history lesson. The right side of the hat reads"4-21" commemorating April 21, which Texans know is more than just a day of regret following 4/20.

No Nike for me!

Video shows fan holding beer while running on field during Astros-Rangers gameSpoiler alert! They always catch them. ⚾ One Astros fan could be facing charges after taking the chance of a lifetime to meet (sort of) his favorite players. This is what happens when someone has one single sip of alcohol after the 7th inning!!! He probably got addicted to meth and joined a gang while incarcerated in stadium prison. Also, do they always catch them? I thought MMP actually had a famous escape run. That's not true. There was a game near the end of last regular season where they simply could not catch a pitch invader. He ended up taking himself off.
