A Day In Rock-October 8th, 2023: Creed Turns Rangers Around
On this day last year… Creed gets credit for helping lift the Texas Rangers to the major league baseball playoffs. The Rangers see their season turn around when they start playing Creed in the clubhouse prior to games.
According to Rangers’ pitcher Andrew Heaney listening to Creed was a way of “having fun” while dealing with the “rollercoaster of the second half” of the season.
The Rangers go on to beat the Arizona Diamondbacks in five games (the best of seven) to take the 119th edition of the World Series.
Creed’s music played a role in the post-game celebration following the final game. Multiple beer and champagne-soaked players gave a full-throated rendition Creed’s “Higher” in the locker room.
Also, Creed sent along their congrats to the World Series champs.
