Okay, guys, let’s talk about something I dug into recently – the owner of the Texas Rangers. You know, the baseball team. I was curious, so I did some digging. You won’t believe what I found!
First off, I traced back the team’s history. This team wasn’t always in Texas. They started as the Washington Senators way back in 1961. An expansion team, they called it. Then, in ’72, they packed up and moved to Arlington, Texas, and boom – they became the Texas Rangers.
Now, about the current owner. I started by tracking down who owns the team now. It’s this group called Rangers Baseball Express. Sounds fancy, right? But who’s behind that? That’s where it gets interesting.
So, I started looking into this Rangers Baseball Express, and guess who’s the big boss there? This guy named Ray Davis. Yeah, the majority owner, the guy running the show, and the chairman. Turns out he’s the main guy in charge.
I then started digging into this Ray Davis. This guy’s quite the character. I found out that this Ray Davis guy is a self-made billionaire! He didn’t inherit this, he built it. He started a natural gas company called Energy Transfer. He made a fortune in the energy business and then jumped into baseball.
- Found out the team moved to Texas in 1972.
- Tracked down the current ownership group.
- Investigated who Ray Davis is.
- Discovered he’s a self-made billionaire.
It’s pretty wild, right? A guy goes from natural gas to owning a major league baseball team. You never know where life will take you. Just wanted to share this little adventure I had. It’s always fun to learn something new, and this whole Texas Rangers ownership thing was a real eye-opener for me. Hopefully, it was interesting for you, too!
