Half-price pizza is a thing again for Rangers fans.

With a two-paragraph statement Wednesday, the Rangers reversed course and reinstated their advertising and promotional partnerships with Papa John's Pizza. The club had suspended its relationship with the chain on July 13 in the wake of a scandal surrounding founder John Schnatter and his use of a racial insult.

"Papa John's has taken a number of meaningful steps to address the reprehensible language used by John Schnatter," the Rangers statement said. "Most importantly, the company has removed Schnatter from any role with Papa John's. The company has acknowledged the hurt that was caused and accepted responsibility for doing whatever is necessary to regain the trust of its customers, partners and employees. Papa John's has promised transparency in this effort, including hiring outside experts to conduct an audit of the company's culture and diversity and inclusion practices."

For Rangers fans, this means the reinstatement of the popular promotion that saw pizzas going for 50 percent off on the day after the Rangers scored at least seven runs in a game. Most other clubs that had promotional deals with Papa John's also put their deals on hold while waiting to see how the company reacted. MLB teams have slowly been trickling back to their sponsorships in recent days.

The Rangers and FC Dallas had both put their deals on hold, but the Cowboys, who are partners in more than 100 Texas-based outlets of the pizza chain, had gone forward with their programs.

FC Dallas reinstated their Score Twice/Half Price promotion on Thursday.

"While all of us at FC Dallas found the comments by John Schnatter offensive, we are supportive of the steps that Papa John's has taken to disassociate the company with its founder," FC Dallas said in its Thursday statement. "We believe they clearly show that any type of discrimination will not be tolerated and we are pleased with the swift actions taken by the leadership team.

"On a local level, we have had nothing but positive experiences working with Papa John's team members throughout Dallas/Fort Worth. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Papa John's while also continuing to make a positive impact with them in our community."

The Rangers partnership with Papa John's the past seven years included $150,000 in commitment to the Texas Rangers MLB Youth Academy in West Dallas, the team's statement said.

"Based on our experience with Papa John's, we believe this incident is not reflective of the company's values or the values of its 2,200 supervisors, managers, team members, delivery drivers, pizza-makers and franchise owners here in North Texas," it added. "For these reasons we are reinstating our partnership with Papa John's beginning with Thursday's game."

While the promotion was on hold, the Rangers scored at least seven runs in five games. They have done it 28 times this season. The Rangers are tied for the seventh-most games with at least seven runs this season.
