Carlos Gomez seemed to be really happy that he left Houston, judging by what he did in his first at-bat as a new member of the Texas Rangers.
With two on, facing a 1-0 count, Gomez got a hanging breaking ball, and he did not miss it. It was a softball pitch, and he sent it into the stands with ease.

Gomez did, indeed, indicate he’s happy to be a Ranger after the game.
We're glad you're here, @RealCarlosGomez!

Gotta love the bat toss. Gomez has mad skills, and swag, too.
