congratulations to everyone, yesterday you saw the history of your team being written and you deserve it.
In here I have read about people who have been waiting for this moment for over sixty years, that moment has arrived so now it must be enjoyed.

For my part, know that I bet on yesterday's match, I knew you were going to win it and so it happened.

Now you can make fun of Houston until the end of days (and beyond): derby won, world series won, silence please.



A question, was there celebrations in Dallas on the streets, in the pubs or in the squares?

If I had known all it took for the Rangers to win it all was for me to quit posting on this site, I would have quit posting years ago!
Lol I would have done the same
Congrats and thank you for your sacrifice

How ironic that Josh Sborz would close it out. Other than Spencer Howard, we probably bad mouthed Sborz more than just about any other player the last couple of years. Props to Maddux and Bochy for seeing something in him. And, Leclerc was very close to being in that same category.

I thought the Rangers needed at least 5 additions to their bullpen next year. Now, I am counting on both of those guys to be important pieces of the 2024 bullpen.

Ngl went to men’s church last nite hoping they would stream
Had heard Nadel the first inning on way. Of course had MLB app but did not look until church ended. A guy just told me it was still 0-0. So I looked quick and bam 1-0 Raced home back to see 8-9 innings

Blessed 4win

Not sure I could have handled being no hit for 6 innings
My situation too. Listened to the radio until I pulled in the driveway at the 7th inning and Chapman was coming in with the score 1-0. I was yelling. "No! Are you crazy!" But I liked how he used Sborz there.

My joy in the Mavs winning was I wanted a championship for Dirk. Went to the parade for my sons. But I am a Rangers fan above all else.

deGrom goes down and misses most of the season.

Rangers are basically a .500 team for final 4 months of season, including a 4-16 stretch.

Statistically one of the worst bullpen in baseball.

And today the Texas Rangers are World Series champions.

Inconceivable. Unbelievable. Incredible. You really just never know.

Hey guys, I have the writeup for the offseason thread ready, but I need to tweak part of it. I will probably wait until the weekend to put it up.

For me this is the greatest championship ever. I am a huge fan of other sports. Went to Dirk parade

But this is the one. So invested my heart.

I am now a changed person
felt similar when the cubs won it all 7 years ago.sorry my father was,nt around to see it with me.
