The Texas Rangers are an American professional baseball team based in the Dallas and Fort Worth metroplex. They compete in Major League Baseball as a member club of the American League West Division and, since 2020, play at Globe Life Field after playing from 1994 to 2019 at Globe Life Park. The team was founded as the Washington Senators in 1961, an expansion team awarded to Washington, D.C., after the earlier Senators moved to Minneapolis to become the Minnesota Twins. The new Senators relocated to Arlington, Texas, after the 1971 season and debuted as the Rangers the next spring. The name derives from a historic law enforcement agency, and the club shares the division with the Houston Astros.
