Rangers manage only 1 hit and still beat Seamen/King Felix on Opening Day

Glass Half Empty / Afternoon Cloud: Cole gave up solo HR's in the first 2 innings-and the Rangers' kryptonite Seager hit one of them.

On top of that the Rangers managed ZERO hits through 4 innings and ONE in the game.

Glass Half Full / Silver Lining: Live by the snow falling on Seager, die by the snow falling for on Seager* - he had 1 of the 2 Seamen errors in the Rangers' 3 run 5th inning.

At least the Rangers seem to still be King Felix's kryptonite. How else can you explain a 3-2 lead for the Rangers and the Rangers with only1 hit at that point.

Tolleson had a 3 up 3 down 9th to close the game.

Thoughts / Observations / Sidenotes:
After 1 game the Rangers are on pace to:
- go undefeated
- have Prince get 162 hits and 162 RBI's (Prince had the only Rangers hit and RBI in the game)
- have the rest of the lineup go without a hit the whole year

*credit to Chris Berman for borrowing that from him.

Good write up. I didn't get to watch the game so this helps. 162 wins with only 162 hits might be a MLB record.
