Baseball Babe #106 Honors Neftali Feliz Texas Rangers Wins Debut Against Mariners Going Seven Innings for the Win!

Neftali Feliz came out shaky walking two batters in the first inning and got a double play to get out of the inning. So, shaky we were wondering if he was going to do the Yu Darvish debut, but he settled down early and went 3 up 3 down with a strike out in the 2nd inning. In the bottom of the 2nd everyday left fielder David Murphy drove in all-star utility man Michael Young off of Texas raised Blake Beaven for what became the only run Neftali Feliz and the bullpen needed for the win. Feliz ended his debut with four hits, two walks, four strikeouts and most importantly the win. The win for the Texas Rangers over the Seattle Mariners helped them get to 4-1 and showed great quality stuff that a starter needs. The closer turned starter came through and so did new closer Joe Nathan getting Feliz' back and picking up the save.
