The Chicago Cubs faced off against the Texas Rangers in the first game of the season, with a special celebration on hand to commemorate the Rangers’ first World Series championship banner. The banner was lowered from the Globe Life Field roof truss high above right field, and it marked a historic moment for the franchise that had been in Texas for 52 seasons.
Manager Bruce Bochy and pitcher Josh Sborz were tasked with bringing home the Commissioner’s Trophy after recording the final out in Game 5 against the Arizona Diamondbacks in November. Bochy expressed his gratitude for the fans’ support, emphasizing how important it was to enjoy this moment as they received their championship rings before Saturday night’s second game of the series.
The title marked a milestone for the Rangers, who had fallen short of winning a World Series title twice before. Max Scherzer, who was part of Washington Nationals championship team in 2019, highlighted how crucial it was to celebrate with fans after last year’s ceremony was limited by COVID-19 restrictions. On the other hand, Cubs manager Craig Counsell expressed jealousy over their success as he watched from opposing dugout.
