    Man, how I wish my dad could have been here to see this. Biggest Rangers fan ever. I was on the phone with him in 2011 when we needed one more strike. I’ve never heard such a crushed, disappointed rea

5-1 against last year’s pennant winners?

of course, neither of them has started off well.

Looks better there with the socks and shoes.

Rangers merged with the White Sox?

Rangers wait until they are dominating their division to decide to be dressed like a minor league team.

"April 21 is a vital date in the history of Texas baseball."

 

There are like a dozen follow-ups possible to that.

 

What?

Why?

Is any date a vital date?

What history of Texas baseball?

Is there a single person that hears April 21 and it triggers some 'oh yeah, that's the day [something something texas baseball]'

The TX looks like it says FX. What's with the dumb line in the middle of the X?

I would agree if he was going to an aerobics class in the 1980’s.

Yea that’s the problem not many fans are going to know shit about this. I only know of these teams because of my grandpa and uncles

I hate them. I knew I would. Overall, I've never been impressed with the Rangers' branding.

Good googly moogly. The demographics they are targeting in that ad are beyond me, I wonder if the data and analytics are saying that those demos (cholas and neck tattoos and urban/graffiti afficionados over a narration by a k104 DJ) are what will fuel the growth and revenue of the Rangers and baseball?

That said, I agree that the Rangers uniforms have always sucked from a design perspective and I don't like the baby blue or throwback either. I guess give me the Red-and-White from the Kenny Rogers/Rusty Greer/Will Clark/Tom Heinke era.

The first reported baseball game in the Houston area was played on April 21, 1868, when the Houston Stonewalls shellacked the Galveston Robert E. Lees 34-5 on the San Jacinto Battleground before a crowd of more than 1,000 people.  While no formal leagues existed at the time, the game was billed as a "state championship game."

very near and dear to my heart as a rangers fan.

The baby blues are okay, IMO, but they'd be better with their standard blue caps. Rangers word mark should be blue, too, bc the white gets washed out.

It's the midnight blue pants that really make these uniforms bad. An all-cream ensemble would be passable. Not my favorite, but not ridiculous like these.

These are almost as bad as the Frank Catalanotto/Vicente Padilla sleeveless grays with the dry fit blue tee underneath. Almost.
