  • Goodbye to one of the best stadiums in Major League Baseball. This was the very last game ever played at Globe Life Park, home of the Texas Rangers from 1994-2019. Next year they'll be moving across the street to their new stadium, Globe Life Field.
    This was also the final regular-season game for future Hall of Famer CC Sabathia. There was a nice video tribute for him on the jumbotron plus lots of festivities to celebrate the stadium itself. I wish there had been more home runs hit on this final day, but it was still an amazing experience.
    Do like the shirt I was wearing? Check out that one and others here:

      The true reason lies in ownership. One of the owners wanted a new stadium, and Dallas put in a bid, which forced Arlington’s hand. I will let you know that it was NOT Bob Simpson who was responsible

      I'm from DFW, and I loved the Ballpark. but they need a stadium with a dome. The heat in the summer is just too oppressive. They should have built the Ballpark with a dome, we would definitely still be playing there for another 20 years if it had a roof.

    I was at the final game at County Stadium for the Brewers. Very cool ceremony there, too. They brought out a lot of the surviving Milwaukee Braves, Brewers, and a handful of Green Bay Packers that had played games there. Uecker gave an amazing tribute speech at the end. It's always cool to experience baseball history like that.

    I was there for opening day 1994. I was 15 years old. After watching games in old Arlington Stadium (a AAA park), I thought the Ballpark in Arlington was the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen. Now, at the age of 40, I still think it’s beautiful, but I’d be lying if I said that the heat hasn’t kept me from going to games. As much as I’ll miss the beauty of the ballpark, I will definitely be looking forward to the AC.

  • @ayojorden8274
    @ayojorden8274 4 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    For everyone who’s wondering why they’re getting a new stadium
    It’s because They’ve gotten many complaints from fans that it’s too hot and they have to sit in the heat to watch a baseball game. So they came up with a plan to build an air conditioned stadium with a retractable roof and they gave the fans an option on if they wanted a new stadium or if they want the same one and majority of fans picked new stadium. Plus it’s hot as sh*t in Texas, it’s near the hundreds every day in Texas during summer.

    • @Emper0rH0rde

    • @bluecrayon007
      @bluecrayon007 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      This wasn’t the main reason. The main reason was the Rangers said they would stay in the Stadium for a certain amount of years and those year were almost up. The city of Arlington did not want to lose the Rangers to a city like Dallas or maybe a different state so they offered them a new stadium. The voting was for the fans and that basically confirmed the new stadium but the main reason was to keep the Rangers in Arlington for attests another 25+ years.

    Globelife Park was a beautiful place but man those summer games were hard to sit through. I went to a few games 2 seasons ago and it was over 100 degrees outside and around 140 degrees field level where we were sitting. Also of course Dallas summers bring insane thunderstorms. Having an enclosed field is going to be great for the fans though I will miss the old stadium it was beautiful.

Never got to make it to Globe Life Park, but it seems like it was a great MLB ballpark to go to and catch balls (and be at in general). The videos you did at this ballpark will just bring back the great memories you had there, so it's great that you have video documentation of your experiences to watch for years to come.

That's saying year Derek was retiring that Season . So we went to see his last game in Arlington. I still got my tickets and my baseball from that game . I'll never forget that.

    5:14 that's awesome. They're playing Nancy Bea Heffley's version of "It's a Beautiful Day for a Ballgame." I grew up listening to Nancy on the Dodger Stadium organ, and hers will always be the true sound of a ballpark to me. I know that the one they're playing here is particularly hers because she released an album of sorts and I listen to that song all the time. I have a tremendous amount of love and respect for Nancy Bea - she's the reason why I learned to play the piano (though I was never any good so I switched to drums). I enjoy Deiter Rhoule's energy that he brings to Dodger games with his own style, but the classic music that Nancy played will always be the best. I thank Globe Life Park for honoring her tradition.

    To me, it will always be The Ballpark in Arlington. The Rangers have IMO always had the best public address announcer in all of sports. Chuck Morgan. Man’s voice gives me nostalgic chills

    Ugh I miss that ballpark so much. Grew up going to there and my grandpa had access to a suit and I grew up going in the suit. So many great games I saw there. 2011 ALCS Game 6. I saw the Odor Baustista fight. And was ONE GAME away from seeing Beltres 3000 hit. Love that stadium

    Also, Zack it was awesome to see you in person being so polite with the fans who kept hammering you every single day. I didn’t wanna bother you anymore so I just took a selfie when you weren’t looking 😂.
    I grew up going to GLP and I was able to get several balls through out my time there during batting practice and it was always my dream to catch an in game homer on the grass. Alas, it wasn’t meant to be. I came down from Wisconsin to say good bye for the final series.
    I would also like to share with you a story from the park that was published in Boys Life Magazine (Boy Scouts) from when my brother was hit in the face by a Russell Branyan homer at GLP when he was playing for the Indians. The crazy thing is that my brother and Branyan are both from Warner Robbins GA. Russell actually gave us the signed bat at the next nights game. The story can be found on page 10 in the link posted below.
