The Rangers have found some inspiration from an unlikely source during their postseason run—the rock band Creed, who had quite a run in the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Creed attended the game and shot this video from the stands, with lead singer Scott Stapp saying “Go Rangers!” and then following that up with “Go MLB, baby!,” which was kind of awkward. 

Fans had jokes:
