Rangers Ban Man Who Directed Racist Comments at Hispanic Family from Games

The Texas Rangers identified and indefinitely banned an unnamed man accused of making racist comments toward a Hispanic family during Saturday's game at Globe Life Park.

The MLB club released a statement Friday that confirmed "we are notifying the individual that he violated the club's fan code of conduct and is indefinitely prohibited from attending Rangers home games," per ESPN.

Ramon Romero spoke with NBC 5 after his wife, Jessica Romero, posted a picture on Facebook showing a man making an obscene gesture toward the family. They alleged he also made racist remarks.
