AL WEST RANGERS ASTROS 2016

HOUSTON ASTROS WIN!

The Budweiser Good Sport Designated Driver Challenge is a competition between two American League West Clubs: the Texas Rangers and the Houston Astros. The winner of the Budweiser Good Sport Designated Driver Challenge is the MLB Club with the most total points at the end of the 2016 regular season. Points are earned when fans pledge to be Good Sports – designated drivers – at MLB games.

The Budweiser Good Sport Designated Driver Challenge is proof, once again, that Responsibility Really Does Have Its Rewards!

Rivalry games are those games when the Texas Rangers and Houston Astros host each other.

At these games, special promotions were in place to encourage fans to pledge to be Budweiser Good Sport designated drivers for their friends and family that day. Each designated driver helped their favorite Club earn one point in the Budweiser Good Sport Designated Driver Challenge.
