Padres 24, Rangers 7
That's not a typo. The Texas Rangers actually allowed the San Diego Padres to score 24 runs on Tuesday.
Greg Maddux looks as ready as he'll ever be to begin the season, after his longest outing of the spring. The veteran gave up four hits and struck out five over six innings, while the Padres nailed a spring-high 25 hits.
Texas' pitching might need some work, however. With 30 mph gusts of wind, your starters better have some control and location. Kevin Millwood gave up 12 hits and nine earned runs over 4.1 innings and reliever Eric Gagne allowed four runs and five hits in one 20-pitch inning. Lefty reliever Ron Mahay got just one out while getting roughed up for seven runs of his own.
Russell Branyan had four hits and five RBIs for San Diego, including his fourth and fifth homers of the spring. Adrian Gonzalez and Terrmel Sledge each had three hits, with Gonzalez hitting his fifth spring homer and driving in three runs.

So much for Paul Byrd supposedly turning things around this season...I'm off the bandwagon, and throwing him under the bus as we speak.
I even had a couple of RBI's in that Padres/Rangers game.
MCBias - That's probably the best thing for everyone.
Jason - The bat boy went 3-for-3 with 2 RBIs as well.
Since my last name is McAdams and my website is called My Baseball Bias, shouldn't I call myself McBias?
Just a though.
