The excitement is building at Globe Life Field in Arlington.

The Texas Rangers' Opening Day is this Thursday, and a new season comes with new merchandise and new menu items.

"Our first Opening Day as defending World Series Champions," Rangers Executive Vice President for Business Operations Rob Matwick said.

The ballpark showcased some of the new food items for the new season.

Sports Director Newy Scruggs joins us with not just talk about Texas Rangers fans, but what the fans are looking forward to eating at the stadium.

"So, usually, we have a tendency to do everything big in Texas," Delaware North at Globe Life Field Executive Chef Cris Vasquez said. "This year, we went the other way ... trying to get back to what we used to do back in the old stadium."

That means rather than every item being a giant portion, there are more slider-sized portions to share with family and friends.

"From hotdogs wrapped in bacon, the crispy tacos, the meatballs," Vasquez said. "The inspiration this year is a little retro."

"Now, because we're in the ballpark and we don't sell peanuts, popcorn, or hotdogs, we'll be selling shrimp dogs this year," ShrimpDoc owner David Harrison said.

"Only at ShrimpDoc will you get a shrimp hotdog!"

"I do believe, now more than ever, people expect better food, more fun food at the stadium," Vasquez said.

There's also the added pressure of serving that food in the home of the World Series Champions.

"It's a lot of pressure, but it's fun," Vasquez said. "It's gonna be fantastic!"
