The 2019 Park Place Dealerships Texas Rangers Triple Play Game Show Spectacular will take place on Sunday evening, May 5 at the Hilton Anatole Dallas. Details of the annual Texas Rangers Baseball Foundation’s fundraiser were announced today.
To reserve tables or individual tickets, contact the Foundation at (817) 273-5275 or go to texasrangers.com/tripleplay.
The theme for the 2019 event is “Escape to Margaritaville.” As always, Triple Play features live and silent auctions and attendance by the entire Texas Rangers team. The highlight of the evening is the Rangers players competing against each other in a pair of game shows. This year’s competitions will be the annual fan favorite Fielders Feud and a new entry Heads Up. The list of participants for each game will be announced at a later date.
Among the items available for bidding in the fabulous live and silent auctions are a roadtrip to Boston to see the Rangers play the Red Sox that includes transportation on the Texas team plane and dining with Hall of Fame pitching great Dennis Eckersley; a trip to the Dominican Republic that includes a tour of the Rangers’ new Baseball Academy; and special suite experiences for the Paul McCartney and Billy Joel concerts later this year at Globe Life Park in Arlington. There will also be private hitting and pitching lessons with current Rangers players, and many other exclusive Rangers experiences, including the opportunity to watch a home game with Hall of Fame catcher Ivan Rodriguez from seats next to the first base dugout.
The event begins with a cocktail reception presented by Tequila Sheela at 6:30 p.m. followed by dinner, the program, and the game shows. Emily Jones and John Rhadigan of FOX Sports Southwest will serve as MC’s for the evening.
Park Place Dealerships is the title presenter of Triple Play, with other sponsors including FOX Sports Southwest, CBS11, TEXAS21, and 105.3 The FAN.
