The Texas Rangers franchise was actually born in Washington, D.C., as the second coming of the Washington Senators. The American League expansion team, which replaced the old Senators after the team’s move to Minneapolis, played in the nation’s capital from 1961 through 1971 before moving to Arlington, Texas.
