Rangers Correct Opening Day Gaffe

The Ballpark in Arlington is home to the Texas Rangers baseball team. A beautiful stadium, it is a peasure to see a ballgame there.

The outfield wall has become home to a number of sponsor signs, as it has in many stadiums. One of the Rangers' sponsors this month is 'The Dump', a furniture liquidation store. Someone in the Rangers' organization, either by chance or on purpose, located 'The Dump' signage on the wall right in front of the Rangers' bullpen. Now, with the horrid performance of Rangers' pitching over the years, one would consider this truth in advertising.

In any case, after this gaffe was noted on the opening day broadcast by the play by play announcers, the Rangers quickly and quietly moved the sign. 'The Dump' is now located by the first base line foul pole. I haven't heard anything else said about it, just noticed the move as I watch today's game telecast.

I hope someone got pictures.
