He was mad at the rangers for a long time because they couldn’t pay him. They have made amends over the last year or so, and he was honored at a game last year.

    Rusty Greer would be very high on my list, followed by “The Keeper of The Big Gold”, and Ruben Sierra.

    Will Clark is one of my favorite all time players, but he’s a Giant.
    Well said Dale...I was 9 years old when Ruben was traded to the A's and remember crying in my living room.

    He was one of my favorites, as well.

    Was so happy to see him come back in the early-mid 2000's.

      Come on now…. That’s like saying Nolan is an Astro or Angel or Beltre was a Dodger/Mariner. Will was here 5 years (8 with the Giants ). Long enough and was part of the first Rangers playoff teams. Loved having the Sheriff on my team. …

            Well by definition ...you being the only one that has listed Palmeiro makes you odd..

            I was always a Will Clark fan ....even in the MSU Thunder and Lightnin' days, Palmeiro was always the anti-Will Clark. When Palmeiro left for Baltimore and Will came, I was happy.

              Forgot to add, I didn't dislike Palmeiro. Loved his bat steroids or not. He just wasn't one of my favorites.

                Palmerio, I always liked as well but man that dude can whine. And I believe he said Baltimore over Texas if he had his pick on where to play.

                  The Rangers kinda gave him the shaft.

                  i was never a Clark fan. The fake Will Clark was solid.

                  You lost around here or sumthin?

                        “The Nuschler” That’s what they called the “grumpy old man” face that Will used to make. Also his middle name.

                            For that once in a lifetime play he made.

                              Probably the greatest slice of karma ever served up on a baseball field. Bat flip aside (I never cared much about that), Bautista was one of the biggest ****suckers baseball has ever produced, a coward, a *****, and an incessant whiner, all rolled up in a toronto uniform. He was notorious for being an ******* well before that, and I absolutely hated that guy, and his girlfriend Donaldson. Lost in most of the coverage of that mele, was the pop knot Mitch Moreland (I think it was MM..) gave Donaldson, who was another fake tough guy. Whether he's the one who got Donaldson or not, ol Mitch went looking for him some contact! Two fake tough guys ****ed around, and found out, that day in the greatest modern baseball park in the world. The only thing Adrian Beltre ever did wrong was saving Bautista's worthless ***...cuz Rougie was gonna end him with the next one!

                              My in laws had just moved to Texas and were living with us for a few months on that lovely spring Sunday afternoon. I had about 9 Shiners in me while we all watched that game in my garage while my son played in the driveway. I was yelling at the TV and watching replay after replay...my mother in law was super impressed.


                              Let's revisit, shall we....

                                That's just how I remember him, probably because of baseball cards. I stopped collecting cards right before Will came to Texas, so I have over 50 of his cards in a Giants uni, and not a single one in Rangers. I do remember those years though, and I LOVED him playing for the Rangers with Rusty, Tettleton, and that whole mid-late 90s team.
