AL West Race Could Produce Losing-Record Playoff Team
The Rangers and Astros are tied for first in the AL West at 78-79, putting the division at risk of producing MLB’s first full-season champion with a losing record.

About Texas Rangers
The Texas Rangers are an American professional baseball team based in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The Rangers compete in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the American League (AL) West Division. The team was founded as the Washington Senators in 1961, an expansion team awarded to Washington, D.C., after the previous Senators incarnation moved to Minneapolis to become the Minnesota Twins. The new Senators relocated to Arlington, Texas after the 1971 season and debuted as the Rangers the next spring. In 2020, the Rangers moved to the new Globe Life Field after having played at Globe Life Park from 1994 to 2019. The team's name derives from a historic law enforcement agency.
