After After 63 years of existing as a franchise, 52 in Arlington, TX...

After decades of futile pursuit of any playoff bid...getting slapped around by the Yankees when they finally made the playoffs...earning their first trip to the World Series in 2010 after slapping the Yankees around for a change...getting that ruined by the Giants...getting back to the World Series, only to get their hearts ripped out by the Cardinals in 2011...falling into a decade-plus backslide into mediocrity...watching the Astros enter their golden age...a disastrous 2022 despite a high-price infield coming aboard...collapsing in August, coming back, letting the division lead slip away on the last day of the regular season...sweeping Tampa and Baltimore...conquering the Astros in 7 games...and flexing overwhelming power over a young core of Diamondbacks...breaking the floodgates after clinging to a 0-0 tie for six innings while being no-hit...and getting the final strike...

The Texas Rangers are the World Series champions for the first time in franchise history!
