• Source: 1990 Texas Rangers season

      • The 1990 Texas Rangers season was the 30th of the Texas Rangers franchise overall, their 19th in Arlington as the Rangers, and the 19th season at Arlington Stadium. The Texas Rangers finished third in the American League West, with a record of 83 wins and 79 losses.

      Regular season


      June 11, 1990: Nolan Ryan threw his sixth no-hitter against the Oakland Athletics.
      July 30, 1990: Nolan Ryan earned his 300th win against the Milwaukee Brewers.
      August 12, 1990: The Rangers and Chicago White Sox were involved in the longest rain delay in baseball history at 7 hours and 23 minutes at Comiskey Park. Behind the delay's length was the White Sox's insistence that the game be rescheduled at Comiskey four days later when both teams were idle and not at Arlington Stadium the subsequent weekend, which was rejected by the Rangers. The gamesmanship between the two sides resulted in the contest eventually played as part of a twi-night doubleheader at Arlington on August 17.
