Texas Rangers Postseason T-Shirt Controversy
When the Texas Rangers clinched the AL West with a win over Los Angeles on Sunday, they were treated to MLB-designed shirts and sweatshirts that had a “The West Is Ours” logo prominently displayed over a backdrop of the Dallas skyline.
Pretty cool, right? Well, there’s only one problem: The Rangers play in Arlington, not Dallas, and this has caused a bit of a stir among the fan base. Queue Twitter:

The apparel, which apparently was not approved by the Texas Rangers club, has now been banned at Globe Life Park, turning the controversial T-shirts into somewhat of a collector’s item.
What do you think of this T-shirt? Is it a violation or just much ado about nothing? Vote here!
