Round Rock’s opener was a 6-1 loss to the Tacoma Rainiers.
Caleb Boushley, part of the clutch of relievers waiting for someone to slip up in the majors, got the start and allowed 2 runs in 3.2 IP, stirking out two, walking one and giving up a bomb. Emiliano Teodo threw 1.1 scoreless innings, with a pair of hits, a walk and a K. Hunter Strickland struck out two in a scoreless inning. Daniel Robert struck out one in a scoreless inning.
Evan Carter led off and was 0 for 4 with a K and a walk, though he had exit velocities of 101.
