 Handbook of Texas Online: TEXAS RANGERS [BASEBALL CLUB]
The Rangers went on to finish first in their division in 1994, despite a losing record, but the mid-August strike by major league players canceled that year's postseason, and the team's first chance to reach the World Series ended prematurely.
The Rangers fell to fourth place in 2000, as they were unable to compensate for the loss of Gonzalez and pitcher Aaron Sele, who departed as free agents after the 1999 season, and All-Star catcher Ivan Rodriguez, who missed almost half the season with a broken finger.
The Texas Rangers, a professional baseball club, belong to the Western Division of the American League.
