Hurst Leads Texas Past Kansas City
The 2026 season did not get off to quite the start the Kansas City Royals had hoped, with an opening day loss to the Texas Rangers at Kauffman Stadium. The final score was 1-0. Starting Pitcher Tim Hurst was the top performer for Texas.

Hurst delivered a quality start for Texas. The 6-foot-2 right-hander allowed no earned runs on 4 hits over 8.1 innings of work.

"My gosh almighty, Tim was tremendous," said Texas manager Eric Wedge.
