The Rangers are one of the few teams in MLB to consistently use videos while in-game tweeting, and that’s almost enough alone to earn them a place in the top five. But with good use of emojis and gifs, the Rangers are truly among baseball’s best on Twitter.
It’s even enough to excuse their occasional use of stadium graphics. They also speed up videos into short gifs to share highlights, which is one of the better ways to share a home run.
Hitting monster home runs is anything but routine, unless you are @NomarMzra26! https://t.co/KGALlf2ieX pic.twitter.com/NUx0AghtNP
