Recent findings (audit lane, verbatim)

The Ballpark in Arlington — The stadium's name 'Choctaw Stadium' was not used until 2021; the entry incorrectly implies it was called that from the start of the 2020 retrofitting. The venue was known as Globe Life Park from 2014 to 2020, then briefly as 'Globe Life Field' (no, that's the

The Ballpark in Arlington — The claim that the stadium 'served as the home of the North Texas SC of MLS Next Pro (FC Dallas's reserve team) until 2025' is inaccurate. North Texas SC played at Choctaw Stadium from 2020 through 2023, but the team moved to a new stadium in Frisco for the 20

Arlington Stadium — The final capacity figure is stated as 'over 35,700' but the final official capacity was 43,521.

Arlington Stadium — The claim that Arlington Stadium was 'partly responsible for the creation of ESPN Sunday Night Baseball' is an invented claim with no basis in established canon.

Mr. Ranger — The entry states the Texas Rangers were unofficially created by Stephen F. Austin in a call-to-arms written in 1823, but the 1823 call-to-arms was for a militia, not specifically for rangers, and the first official ranger company is generally credited to 1835.

Mr. Ranger — The entry says the unit was dissolved by federal authorities after the Civil War, but the Texas Rangers were disbanded by the Texas state government in 1870, not by federal authorities.

Tom Hicks — The entry states Hicks died on December 6, 2025, but as of the current date (2025), this is a future date and not a confirmed fact; no widely-known canon confirms his death.

Rangers Hall of Fame — Ivan Rodriguez did not play his entire major league career with the Rangers; he also played for the Marlins, Tigers, Yankees, Astros, and Nationals.

Rangers Hall of Fame — Ron Washington was inducted into the Rangers Hall of Fame in 2023, not as part of the inaugural 2014 class.

Texas Rangers Radio Network — The 2011 World Series Championship is incorrectly attributed to the Texas Rangers; the Rangers lost the 2011 World Series to the St. Louis Cardinals and have never won a World Series title as of the established canon.

Texas Rangers Radio Network — Bill Applegate is not a legendary broadcaster for the Texas Rangers; the notable longtime Rangers radio voices include Eric Nadel, Mark Holtz, and others, but Bill Applegate is not a recognized figure in Rangers broadcast history.

Rangers Ballpark in Arlington — The stadium's original name at opening was 'The Ballpark in Arlington', not 'Choctaw Stadium'.

Rangers Ballpark in Arlington — North Texas SC played at Choctaw Stadium from 2020 through 2023, not until 2025.

Jim Lefebvre — The entry states Lefebvre's role with the Texas Rangers was 'Radio Play-by-Play Announcer' from 1972–2005, but Jim Lefebvre never served as a play-by-play announcer for the Texas Rangers; he was a manager and coach, not a broadcaster.

Jim Lefebvre — The tagline says 'Former MLB infielder, manager, and coach,' but the intro and stats incorrectly assign him a 34-year broadcasting career with the Rangers, which is a factual error about his actual career.
