The heartbreak……..The memories…..The nightmares……they’re all finally over! The rangers 12 year redemption arc is complete!!!

The Rangers are finally that one team in baseball where almost every other fan base is accepting of the winner. No cheating or controversy to look back on, just a fun young group of players led by a Hall of Fame manager to win their first ever championship.

Redemption from that heart breaking 2011 World Series, finally its coming home to Texas. Let’s go Rangers

[christinat]

I have spent many summers boiling in the heat, having crickets fall into my 10 dollar cup of beer, lost countless pairs of sunglasses, 2010-2011 heartache, was all worth it. It’s Baseball time in Texas!!❤

As an A’s fan so happy to see Marcus Siemien finally win the chip. The east bay is proud of you!

Bruce Bochy just punched his ticket to the HOF as a manager.

Congratulations, Rangers. You deserve it.

2011, i watched us lose in my college dorm as a freshman. Since then, i went off to grad school, moved 3 cities, married, and expecting a kid. Finally winning the WS is a cherry on top!

Man, Gallen made this an epic struggle for my Rangers. Hats off to a fantastic opponent. Can't wait for another match up next season. Until

FINALLY!!! Been a fan since 1977. Buddy Bell, Jim Sundberg, Pete Incaviglia, Rafael Palmeiro, Pudge Rodriguez, Juan Gonzales, Michael Young, Josh Hamilton, and many more. I was at the old Arlington Stadium for Nolan Ryan’s 5000th strikeout as well as at the Big A for his return. Been to playoff games at Globe Life Park. Watched them loose WS in 2010 and heartbreaker in 2011 both on vacation in Arizona. Never thought we would have another chance until this July. Complete roller coaster of a season finally made me a believer. So happy to finally see them win it all!!! Congratulations to all the players and Bochy (Now isn’t that ironic the manager that beat them in 2010 helped them win in 2023). Also congratulations to all the Ranger fans that like me have waited this long! LETS GO

I grew up with this franchise in Washington DC. They had one winning season with Ted Williams as the manager, and then they moved to Texas and 50 years of disappointments. Some great players, surely, but every season ended with heartbreak, especially in 2012. FINALLY, IT HAS HAPPENED. It’s hard to believe. Thank you Chris Young, Bruce Bochy, Cory Seager, etc. etc., we are finally the World Champs!!

Two months ago, I thought our season was over! This is incredible.

[michaelshort]

As a lifelong Rangers fan who got stuck living in Houston these last five was the greatest moment ever!

[hunterbawlz]

I never thought I'd see it happen, and it nearly brought me to tears. Let's Go

[vwongv]

Who remembers going as a kid to see them and eatting ice cream in those blue plastic helmets?!!! My dad would take me to see them as a child 35 yrs ago and know as an adult to see them win their 1st 🏆 is so exciting!

Congrats Boch we miss you here in S.F.. I told my cousin a Rangers fan they made a great choice before the season started.

[FAREDxREZURECT]

As a Southern Texan, who barely got into baseball the start of the Season for the 2021-2022 season. What a Time to be alive. Some may understand, others won’t. But southern Texans don’t have a definitive MLB to lean on either you choose Texas Rangers or Houston Astros. Or in my Case I DONT GIVE A EFF. Texas is My State and I support both! And Holy Crud I got to witness Texas as a state become Back to Back Champs!!! LETS GO Congrats Texas Rangers for making History and Getting your 1st World Series!

[Gamerdude]

Back 12 years ago when they lost both WS games my dad said, "I don't think I'll be alive to see Rangers win a WS." BUT 12 years later, im married with a 3 1/2 yr old, my wifey, my younger brother and both my parents were ALL in the same room when the umpire said "STRIKE" to finally see Rangers win a WS!
My dad has seen all of his favorite teams win championships.

[charlessmith]

"There's the backdoor curve - right on the corner - STRIKE THREE! AND IT IS A WALK-OFF! NOT JUST FOR THE GAME! BUT FOR THE SERIES!

Texas fans - you can now finally celebrate - YOUR FIRST - WORLD - SERIES - CHAMPIONSHIP! The Rangers are now top dog in this 2023 MLB season! They won it all this year!!!"

This is how I would call it if I was the Texas Ranger play-by-play announcer on the final out.
