Texas Rangers general manager Chris Young defended his team\'s postseason-clinching celebration, saying he thinks it is \"ridiculous that that\'s even a subject\" and ripping a Houston Astros reporter\'s \"pretty poor journalism\" for a \"classless\" comparison of the in-state rivals\' celebrations.
Young weighed in on what has become a hotly debated topic in the Lone Star State during an interview on 105.3 The Fan on Monday, one day after the Rangers squandered their American League West division lead to the Astros on the final day of the season.
\"I find it ridiculous that that\'s even a subject, honestly,\" Young said. \"This is the most professional, responsible group of players that I\'ve ever been around. We had a very subdued champagne popping, but beyond that there was, there was no partying. There was nothing outlandish.\"
