Kaiser Lifts Rangers to 7-4 Triumph
The bad news for the Seattle Mariners: an opening day loss, 7-4, to the Texas Rangers at Safeco Field. The good news: it was just game one in a long season. No one played better than Butch Kaiser. He was 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 4. Brad Kramer was credited with the save for Texas, his 1st of the season.

The game turned with one out in the top of the seventh when Kaiser, who finished 5th in the AL in stolen bases with 36 in 2046, hit a 2-run single. It propelled the Rangers into the lead, 6-4.

"We came in and got the job done. That's what it's all about in this business," said Kaiser.
