Bally Sports Southwest to Host 'Texas Rangers Christmas Marathon'

Texas Rangers fans can get their baseball fix on Christmas Day!

The Major League Baseball lockout is leaving many fans without any type of baseball fix. While current events will remain on hold, Texas Rangers fans will be able to have some form of baseball on Christmas.

Bally Sports Southwest, the television home of the Rangers, will broadcast Texas Rangers Christmas Marathon on Christmas Day, Saturday, Dec. 25 from 11:00 a.m. until 11:00 p.m. CST. During that time, BSSW will rebroadcast six of the most memorable Texas Rangers games from the 2021 season. Even a 102-loss season had some exciting moments. Each of the six games will be aired in a two-hour window.

The schedule for Texas Rangers Christmas Marathon:
