Ready or not: Rangers rookie Carlos Tocci to help fill void in center field | Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Carlos Tocci looked up at the sky above center field in Globe Life Park and gasped.

"There are a few ballparks in the minors that are big in center field, but when I first stepped in this center field I looked in the sky and I thought, this is big," said Tocci, 22, who made his major league debut for the Rangers on Saturday.

Defense, however, isn't much of a worry for Tocci, who showed manager Jeff Banister more than enough in the outfield during spring to earn an Opening Day roster spot.
