Arlington, TX -- With their 22nd sellout of the season tonight, the Texas Rangers established a new club record for home sellouts in a season.

“On behalf of the entire Rangers organization, I want to thank our tremendous fans for their support this season,” commented Rangers CEO and President Nolan Ryan. “Playing to capacity crowds every night is a real home field advantage for the club, and this fan response is greatly appreciated.”
