We’re proud to have financially supported the following organizations in the past year to help further their goals of serving in action.
Covering Home, presented by Ashley HomeStore, is a community volunteer initiative comprised of Round Rock Express ownership and staff. Built on an Express Core Value of "passionately participating in the community," we instill in our employees that the platform of baseball should be used as a vehicle for service. Covering Home was initially launched in early 2016 to offer ownership, staff, players and coaches opportunities to give back to the community at least twelve times a year. By choosing a new organization or cause with whom to partner each month, volunteers can participate in initiatives that are important to them. The Round Rock Express and Ashley HomeStore will work together to donate time and resources to local organizations that better the community we call home.

Round Rock will be the fourth different club for which Holmberg has managed in the Rangers farm system after serving at the helm of Short-Season Spokane in 2018, the Rookie-level Arizona League Rangers from 2013-2015 and the Rookielevel Dominican Summer League Rangers from 2010-2011.

His father Dennis has spent over 40 years in player development with the Blue Jays organization and was inducted into the Florida State League Hall of Fame in 2018.
CHASE LAMBIN HITTING COACH Round Rock Express Hitting Coach Chase Lambin’s seventh season in the Texas Rangers organization also marks his Triple-A coaching debut.

BUILDING THE FUTURE Round Rock Sends Six Players to Arlington During Season’s First Month Just two days after Round Rock Express outfielder Jason Martin was named the Texas Rangers Minor League Player of the Week by the club’s Player Development department, the 25-yearold found himself in the batter’s box at Angels Stadium in the midst of a wild Texas comeback against Los Angeles. Martin became one of six Express players to earn a promotion to Arlington during the season’s first month of the season after hitting .302 (16-53) with three doubles, seven home runs and 16 RBI across 15 games in a Round Rock uniform. At the time of his promotion on May 26, Martin ranked among Triple-A West League leaders in six different offensive categories, including home runs, RBI, runs scored, SLG, OPS and total bases. The wave of call-ups to begin the 2021 season christened Round Rock’s new affiliation with Texas, highlighting the club’s role of developing and cultivating talent to ultimately benefit the Rangers. The first E-Train player to earn a promotion to The Show during Round Rock’s new 10-year affiliation agreement with Texas occurred on May 14, only nine days into the season
as left-handed pitcher Wes Benjamin earned the call after a dominant Opening Day start at Dell Diamond. The southpaw has posted three different stints with Texas so far in 2021, assisting the Rangers in a variety of roles, from acting as a spot starter to pitching in high-leverage situations out of the bullpen to serving on the team’s Taxi Squad. Less than 24 hours after Benjamin received the call, fellow Round Rock hurler Hunter Wood was on his way to Houston to join the Rangers during the team’s roadtrip against the Astros. With the E-Train, Wood appeared in two games, posting no record with a 3.38 ERA. His success continued to Texas, where he allowed just two runs on two hits in 5.0 strong innings across five appearances through the end of May. Right-handed pitcher Demarcus Evans became the third member of the Round Rock pitching staff to make it back to the Major Leagues, earning a call-up on May 25. Evans appeared in five games for the E-Train, all in relief, posting a 1-0 record to go along with a 2.35 ERA and a miniscule .172
opponent batting average. The righty departed for Arlington leading all Round Rock relievers with 16 strikeouts on the season and riding a season-long 5.1-inning scoreless streak. After a brief but successful stint in the Sports Capital of Texas, Express outfielder Eli White returned to the Rangers on June 8. In 20 games prior to his promotion, the speedy outfielder hit a red-hot .343 (23-67) with two doubles, a triple, 11 RBI and 19 runs scored in 20 games as a member of the Express. After re-joining the Rangers, White clubbed his first two career home runs on June 16 against the Astros at Minute Maid Park, becoming just the second player in Texas franchise history to hit his first two career MLB home runs in the same game. Round Rock’s sixth promotion of the season came via a familiar face on June 9 as right-hander Spencer Patton, who also suited up for the Express from 20142015, earned a call-up after a blistering start to the 2021 season. Patton raced out to a 2-0 record with a perfect 0.00 ERA through his first 11 relief appearances with the Express this season. The Urbana, Illinois native allowed just six hits and
six walks while tallying 12 strikeouts in 12.0 shutout innings with the E-Train. He also converted all four save opportunities he faced in 2021, all while holding opponents to a paltry .154 average. His success in Round Rock carried over into Arlington, where through his first four relief outings, the righty has allowed just one base hit while striking out six in 4.0 scoreless innings. With the Texas Rangers continuing their rebuilding process, Round Rock’s role in player development has never been more important. As Round Rock enters the summer months with the best record in the Triple-A West League, opportunities are abound for Express players to make their mark on the Major Leagues. in 4.0 scoreless innings. With the Texas Rangers continuing their rebuilding process, Round Rock’s role in player development has never been more important.

For example, if a batter flies out to center field, "F8" could be written in the box. If a batter grounds out to third, "G53" would show the third baseman throwing to the first baseman to record the out. Finally, if a shortstop makes an error, "E6" could be used to describe the play.

Want your chance to walk away from an Express game a little richer? Thanks to the passing of Proposition 5 in 2019, the Express, Nolan Ryan Foundation and Cook-Walden Funeral Homes & Cemeteries are joining forces to host a 50/50 Raffle every home game. A 50/50 Raffle means that half of the net proceeds from 50/50 ticket sales each night will go to one lucky fan while the other half will go back to the Nolan Ryan Foundation. Fans will be able to purchase raffle tickets from the time the gates open until the end of the sixth inning. The winner will be announced in the seventh inning. At the end of the season, the Nolan Ryan Foundation will make a donation to a variety of local nonprofit organizations in Central Texas through their recently-founded community grant program. Every night is a new chance to not only win, but help a great cause in the process. Tickets can be purchased at the 50/50 Raffle kiosk on the concourse behind home plate or from one of the roaming vendors throughout Dell Diamond. All raffle ticket purchases must be made with cash or a debit card. Credit cards will not be accepted, per state law.
