Opening Day is in the books for the Texas Rangers, but it sure felt like it took eons to get there.

The Dallas Cowboys lost 14-10 to the Kansas City Chiefs on Thursday (oh wait, did we make a football analogy there? We meant the Texas Rangers lost to the Kansas City Royals).

You couldn’t be blamed for thinking that this was a Big XII game or an NFL game based on peeking a glance at that final score, an unusually high one for baseball.
