Rangers Hope Opening Day Win Bodes Well for Season
The Texas Rangers put one in the win column with an opening day 5-1 triumph over the Chicago Cubs. The crowd at Globe Life Field watched Taj Bradley put on a fine performance. Bradley, the winner, moves to 1-0. He threw 5.2 innings of 1-hit ball, while fanning 7 and giving up 3 walks.

Justin Foscue chipped in for Texas with a 2-run home run in the bottom of the third. For the game, the first baseman had 2 hits in 3 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 RBI.

"This level of focus will win us a lot of ballgames," Foscue said after the game.
