Originally a minor league ball park built to major league specifications so that it could be expanded for Major League, Turnpike Stadium (located half-way on the then DFW Turnpike, now Interstate 30 The Tom Landry Highway) became Arlington Stadium and was expanded when the Washington Senators were moved to Texas to become the Rangers in 1972. The team played there through 1993. In 1994 The Ball Park in Arlington was built and retained that name until 2004 when Ameriquest bought the naming rights calling it Ameriquest Field in Arlington. The club severed those rights in 2007 and the stadium has since been known as The Rangers Ball Park in Arlington.

They were called rangers because of the vast amount of territory they had to ride their horses. The Texas Rangers baseball team formed in 1972 but had evolved from originally being the Washington Senators (1961-1971).
