No reason to freak out. My thoughts on Game one.
Most fans may look at this game and freak out because of the bullpen giving up the lead in the 9th on a 3-run home run. Luke Jackson just didn't have it tonight and that's pretty clear.

Five Texas Rangers Prospects to Watch In 2025
Here's a fun list of five Texas Rangers prospects to keep an eye on for the 2025 season—but this isn’t a definitive ranking of the farm system’s best.

Whenever you look upon an organizations history or success, there’s always a few people that stick out like a sore thumb and they separates themselves from everyone else. As big of a Rangers fan as I can be, I can tell you the biggest impact this organization has & will ever have is the man who brought baseball to Arlington, Texas: Former Mayor, Tom Vandergiff!
