About Site

This is a Texas Rangers fan site run by Joe Siegler. From 1999 through 2013 I used to do daily game updates, but got burnt out on that and stopped.

The site lives on as my favorite section to update I'm still very interested in. That is the Uniform Number history pages, which I'm quite proud of. Plus Ill write the odd article here and there.

If you have any questions, please feel free to drop me a line.
