The Rangers could equal this abysmal stat not seen since 1980

The Texas Rangers have been synonymous with putting up big offensive numbers for over thirty years now, which makes this year's team and this dubious possibility even more alarming.

For the first tie since 1980, when Al Oliver topped the team with 19 homers, the Rangers are looking at the very real chance of not having a single player with at least 20 homeruns.

It has been 45 years since the Rangers haven't had a player hit at least 20 dingers

Excluding the strike shortened season of 1981, the last time the Texas Rangers failed to have a 20 homerun hitter was in 1980 when Al Oliver hit 19 longballs.
