C.J. Wilson Tweets Mike Napoli's Phone Number. It's Less "Good Prank, Guy" And More "Wow, Dick Move."

Last year, Texas showed the famous 1993 brawl between the Rangers and White Sox before every single game.

Josh Hamilton Apologizes And Admits He Had "Three Or Four" Drinks Monday Night

Yorvit Torrealba Spread The Holiday Spirit By Slugging A Venezuelan League Umpire
Rangers catcher Yorvit Torrealba is spending the offseason playing for his hometown Leones del Caracas of the Venezuelan League, and after missing badly for strike three took his frustrations out on the umpire in an ugly way.

Yeah, That's A Rangers 2011 World Champs Tattoo
Add another to the ever-expanding world of premature Texas sports tattoos. I would like to think this fellow got his ink done with two outs in the ninth in game 6. The best part is the Mavs trophy tattoo next to it—almost (almost) makes me wish the Heat had come back to win that one. [Big League Ste...
