(PHOENIX) — The Texas Rangers won their first World Series title in the franchise’s 63-season history.
The Rangers closed out the season with a 5-0 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks in Game 5 on Wednesday.
The Rangers joined the American League as the expansion Washington Senators in 1961 — before moving to Arlington and rebranding in 1972.
Having appeared in two World Series prior to this season, the Rangers lost to the San Francisco Giants in 2010 and to the St. Louis Cardinals in 2011.
Shortstop Corey Seager was named the World Series MVP for the second time in his career. Seager secured his first World Series MVP award with the Los Angeles Dodgers during the 2020 World Series.
Seager scored the first run of the game at the top of the seventh, ending Diamondback pitcher Zac Gallen’s six-inning no-hitter.
Seager joins the rankings of Reggie Jackson after becoming only the second player to win World Series MVP awards on two different teams.
Just before the 2022 season, Seager signed a 10-year, $325 million deal with Texas.
There are five remaining teams in Major League Baseball who have yet to clinch a World Series title: San Diego Padres, Seattle Mariners, Tampa Bay Rays, Colorado Rockies and the Milwaukee Brewers.
(NEW YORK) — Bob Knight, the often controversial but always successful head coach who won three national titles at the helm of Indiana University, has died, according to a statement by his family posted on his website Wednesday evening.
He was 83.
Knight’s family said he passed away in his home in Bloomington “surrounded by his family.”
“We are grateful for all the thoughts and prayers, and appreciate the continued respect for our privacy as coach requested a private family gathering, which is being honored,” the family said in a statement.
Nicknamed “The General” for his resemblance to a drill instructor, Knight was the all-time NCAA leader in wins when he retired in 2008 — a record later passed by his protege Mike Krzyzewski.
Knight was known for his high-octane personality on and off the court, and would frequently shout at referees, other players and engage in visible outbursts during games.
Knight was famously ejected from a game against Purdue on Feb. 23, 1985, when he threw a chair into the crowd.
Born in Ohio, Knight went on to play basketball at Ohio State University, where he graduated in 1962.
He enlisted in the Army in 1963 and two years later was named the head coach of its basketball team.
Knight coached the Army team for six seasons and won 102 games. In 1971, Indiana University hired Knight to lead their NCAA Division I team and he would remain in the position for 29 years.
During his tenure, the team won 662 regular season games, 42 NCAA tournament games, and won three NCAA championship titles.
Knight was fired in 2000 following allegations by players that he assaulted them. Word of Knight’s dismissal prompted protests from students.
Knight went on to coach at Texas Tech before retiring in 2008.
Knight attended a Hoosiers’ game against Purdue in February 2020, for the first time in 20 years despite numerous vows to never attend an event following his firing.
Knight was married twice and had two sons, Tim and Pat Knight. Pat Knight played under his father at Indiana from 1990 to 1995 and went on to succeed his father as Texas Tech’s basketball head coach following his retirement.
