Banister envisioned World Series at Globe Life Field before it was built, when he was Texas manager

Jeff Banister envisioned being part of a World Series at Globe Life Field even before ground was broken for construction of the retractable-roof stadium that is the home of the Texas Rangers. “It’s a beautiful place,” Banister said. Banister was manager from 2015-18, during the span when the Rangers announced plans for a new stadium and began building it.
