REACTION to the Rangers winning their FIRST World Series | SportsCenter 

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.

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

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!!❤

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

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

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!

Bruce Bochy just punched his ticket to the HOF as a manager. Congratulations, Rangers. You deserve it.

Congrats Rangers ! From Chicago

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

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!!

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

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 RANGERS!!!!!

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 then.....GO RANGERS!!!!!!!!

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!

Congratulations Texas Rangers 🎉🥳🎊 Earned Your Championship!! 👏

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.

Congratulations👏👍🎊🎉🥳💐🍾🥂🎆🎇 To The Rangers On Their World Series Win They Deserve It

Hurray Texas Rangers!!!❤❤❤❤. You guys are World Series champs!!!!. Unbelievable!!! We're partying in Dallas!!🎉🍾🍹🍺🍻🍷🍸

AS A YANKEE FAN CONGRATULATIONS TO THE RANGERS THEY PLAYED HARD AND DESERVED IT 🏆✌️

So happy for the Rangers win. But if we're talking about championship droughts, the Red Sox went 86 years before breaking the "Curse of the Bambino" of 1918 and finally getting their first WS win in 2004. The Rangers deserved this win...11 road wins is just unbelievable and will probably never be matched.

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.

Been my team for my entire life, I am not ashamed to say I cried when that final pitch was called

Congratulations Rangers from a Mets fan….Baseball has the most unpredictable outcomes of the 4 major sports

"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.

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

Congratulations texas rangers from a braves fan glad to finally see you guys win a world series 🏆

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 TEXAS!!!!! Congrats Texas Rangers for making History and Getting your 1st World Series!

11-0 on the road in this playoffs. That will not be done again for at least 20 years. INSANE!!! You've heard of Road Warriors, but not to this extent.

Bruce Bochy is an OG and HoFer

Congratulations Texas!!!!

Live in Amarillo, TX. Had a slight rooting interest for both teams, as Amarillo is the Double-A affiliate of the D-Backs. The D-Backs have a heck of a farm system so they may give the Padres and Dodgers some trouble in the NL west for a little while.

For the people that said these two teams didn't belong in the world series because they were wild cards I say, they beat every team that had clinched the division winners and that means these two ARE the best. The 6 innings no hitter was great and scary at the same time because im a rangers fan. Congratulations to both teams! But especially to the WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS TEXAS RANGERS 🎉

Rangers are a classy organization. Brought in the right pieces. Didn't alienate their fans by caving into the LGBTQ Pride month garbage and even gave a championship ring for this world series to their past franchise hall of famers as a thanks you. Great organization!!!!

12 years bruh 💀 finally a dub

Gotta love Bruce Bochy.

How sweet it is!!! I remember in 2011 not being able to sleep after what happened in Game 6. GO RANGERS!!!

This was a freaking wild season/post season for the the Rangers, and I love it!

been waiting for this moment since 2011

Bochy finally got his odd year championship!

Been a fan since they moved to Arlington in 1972.....Highs and lows (2010/2011)...I'm on cloud nine to say the least.....Congratulations to the team, and our fans....

A great victory for the Texas Rangers and their fanbase. Somewhere in the state of Texas Nolan Ryan is smiling.😊😊😊

Top 5 moments of my life. Go rangers

Congratulations to the Rangers. Regardless of some of the BS that John Smoltz was putting out about the D-backs the other day, I say that the real D-backs finally showed up in this World Series. My prediction is that it will be a long time before they ever get back to this level again. Sometimes people forget just how tough the NL West is.

Their story is remarkable! Congratulations Rangers!

Texas Rangers will be special guests at the Dallas Cowboys' next home game!!!

They bring in Bruce Bochy and they win first try.... WOW

This has been the most incredible post season, like a fairy tale. I’m so thankful I got to enjoy the ride. Go Rangers!

I can finally forgive Bochy for denying the Rangers in their first WS appearance 😂

Props to the D-Backs made this alot closer than what it looks like on paper. Always felt they were a couple swings from taking the lead. Hats off to them. Hopefully we can get a rematch next year! Proud to be a Rangers fan!

2011 was heart breaking that pain could go away now

This was so great to watch.

Happy for Bochy, sad for my SF Giants

At 43 I've been waiting for this since '88 when I became a fan and to finally get it feels amazing, way to go Rangers!

Congrats RANGERS ...EAS"T"EXAS RESPECT A LONG TIME COM8N & NEEDED....TEXAS BACK2BACK CHAMPS.

Congrats 2 the Texas Rangers!

Mayne along time coming!! Texas rangers World Series champs Sounds soo gooodddd!! Hope we keep up this energy for a while

Congrats Rangers fans!!

Too witness the first World Series with my favorite team is definitely a memory I won’t forget! Been a rough rough 12 years but CY is building something special for years to come can’t wait too see what happens next!

In 3 seasons I’ve watched my two main teams win the World Series with the Braves and Rangers. What a time to be alive!

I know there are probably many others like me that can still remember where they were back in 2011 when we lost the way we did to the Cardinals. It put me into a funk about them for several years. This season has really been about exorcising those demons. So fitting that we had to beat the Astros in the ALCS in the process

I knew right away once Arizona beat the Phillies it was over…there was no chance the Rangers were losing.

Unbelievable! Wow!

GO RANGERS! Only team to no support the pride month, God was with them!🙏

God bless America and long live Texas 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Bochy wins one against and then eventually wins one with the Rangers!

Congrats. ❤❤

So much support from fans of all kind of different teams. Teams we have a bit of a chippy history with. Even some Astros fans. So cool. Thanks everyone🤙

I am so happy to see the ONE team in MLB that didn't cater to political correctness and have a "Pride" night, also get a World Series championship!

Congrats from Houston!🥳🎉🙂

Badass story Man GO RANGERS!🤠

I like how he brought up being one out away 12 years ago. Yeah not only that… one pitch away… twice! One pitch… TWICE! Killed me. I didn’t even watch another game until tonight’s game 5. Thank you Rangers!!! Thank you thank you thank you!

Can’t say they didn’t earn it. What a run

Year of the first timers. Denver Nuggets and the Rangers.

Congratulations!

All hail the champs! Texas Rangers.🎉

Good for the rangers ❤️

Gotta be happy for Texas. What a season they had.

The Nelson Cruz curse is over!! 🤠⚾️🏆

I watched The Texas Rangers with my grandparents when I was a child in the 70s. We watched every night on channel 11 as the Rangers built a team and my Pawpaw fell asleep in his chair religiously at 9:00 pm. Some games took me over bedtime, but Granny would allow it. Game after game, year after year, the Rangers were our nightly routine. I grew up, graduated high school and college, but the nightly routine of Ranger Watching with my grandparents never changed. A new ballpark opened in Arlington and my grandparents gave me a graduation gift of season tickets in the outfield. Marriage, children, and I moved away from home. But, my grandparents remained the constant, nightly Texas Rangers games. We lost Pawpaw first, then Granny. Later, my dad died. Through the years, the Texas Ranger games stayed a nightly family tradition. Then, as I was in California (1800 miles away from home and family), the Rangers made their first World Series. Then, another one. But, no title. I started to get gray hair. Years later, I moved home to Texas and now there was another stadium nearby in Arlington, the Cowboys had moved in. Working in Arlington, I would drive my truck by the stadiums, seeing the beauty of the new Arlington sports campuses. But, the child inside always remembered the old Rangers Stadium, along with my favorites Boo-Shelle and Pudge, and Nolan Ryan. They taught me how to be a man. =-) Now, we have a title. I watched the last outs and thought of Granny and Pawpaw and Dad in Heaven, hoping they were as happy as I am. 53 years of Ranger Tears have grown within my eyes. Tonight, they were released. I'm too much of a man to cry forever, but tonight, I cry for all of us.

Stupendous

Love the video! But are we gonna get a baseball Matt video?!?! Lol

I Love ❤️ it 🔥

LETS GO !!! #DFW

I've been a Rangers fan since 1836!! So glad they won!!

The Dallas Metro area is a huge market...

And with this win, you may not notice it, but backup closer Will Smith became the first player in MLB history to win 3 consecutive World Series with 3 different teams (Braves in '21, Astros in '22, and Rangers in '23).

There are now 5 teams that never won a WS

I’m happy that the Rangers won and I’m also happy that these teams knocked out all those other big market teams that are normally in the World Series. Ratings be damned.

#WentAndTookIt!!

Texas Rangers: championship Dallas Cowboys: championship Dallas Mavericks: championship Dallas Stars: championship Texas Longhorns: championship San Antonio Spurs: championship Houston Texans: your turn
