Why the name Texas Senators?
My son came up with the name given his passion for the Texas Rangers unless, of-course the New York Yankees are in town. Since my son played baseball, our team was called Rangers but it was time for something new. The original name for the Texas Rangers was Senators after the Washington Senators relocated to Texas back in 1972. Arlington constructed the stadium in 1964 and called it Turnpike Stadium with a seating capacity of 10K seats. The stadium was the first major league stadium supporting the American league games in Texas. November 1971 the team owner changes the name to Texas Rangers in time to start the next season. Looking back at the team history and uniforms worn by the players, it was fitting to take the two names to form the Texas Senators Baseball Club. Organization currently offers four teams for baseball.
