I don't believe so. Hicks bought the franchise outright in the '98 sale. He sold in '10 to some conglomerate group headlined by Nolan Ryan.
For that to be true, thousands of season ticket holders missed game 1 of the Minnesota series and caught every other home playoff game. Doubtful. It’s on Ted!
If I recall he sold his stake at very substantial profit. His initial investment was $500,000 and he ended up selling his share of the team in 1998 for an estimated $15 million. Today in Baseball History: George W. Bush 'buys' the Texas Rangers
Ted is fighting back. I will say that the author of this piece is on a baseball fan. He mentions the Astros cheating in 2017 but it was for at least 2017 through 2020. Of course, that may be why Ted likes them so much, since the Astros treat the rules of baseball like his party treats the rules of democracy.
In fairness, he also tweeted support for the Texans. But I don’t feel like being fair. The curse is proven. I am going to decide Sen. Cruz was at the game.
