From my first baseball game to the World Series - following the Texas Rangers

I couldn't be happier for the Texas Rangers after their incredible World Series victory last night. I've been a fan of the team since my first baseball game at Globe Life Field in August 2022, and it's been an amazing journey to watch them grow and succeed.

I've loved following the Rangers this season, even though it's meant staying up late to watch games from the UK. It's all been worth it, though, to see the team finally reach the top of the mountain.

Congratulations to the Rangers on an amazing season!


As a Brit, I've always been fascinated by American culture, and baseball is a big part of that.  So when I had the opportunity to visit the US in August 2022, I knew I had to go to a baseball game. I chose the Texas Rangers vs. Oakland Athletics game at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas, and I'm so glad I did.

My wife and I arrived at the ballpark early to soak up the atmosphere. There were people of all ages and backgrounds, all excited to see the Rangers play. We visited the award winning vegan concession stand where we bought a hot dog, nachos and drinks, and the found our seats. 

The game itself was amazing. The Rangers won, but it was more than just the score that made it so special. The stadium created a truly unique atmosphere.  We were also impressed by the skill and athleticism of the players.

One of the things I loved most about the game was the sense of community. Everyone was there to have a good time, and there was a real camaraderie among the fans. I also appreciated the fact that the game was affordable and accessible to people of all ages and incomes.

Before and during the game, I walked around the stadium and took some photos. I wanted to capture the memories of this special day. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to experience a baseball game at Globe Life Field. It was an unforgettable experience, and it made me fall in love with the sport.

If you're ever in the US during baseball season, I highly recommend going to a game. It's a truly unique and American experience.
