ANAHEIM, California (Ticker) -- The Texas Rangers are probably happy to see Kelvim Escobar on the mound for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

Escobar is just 2-8 with a 4.52 ERA in his career against Texas. In four starts last season vs. the Rangers, Escobar was 0-3 with a 7.16 ERA.

Escobar finished 11-14 with a 3.61 ERA in 2006.

Vicente Padilla will start for Texas. Padilla was 15-10 with a 4.50 ERA in 2006 for Texas, which has lost 15 of its last 19 games in Anaheim.

John Lackey allowed just one run in five innings as the Angels posted a 4-1 win over Texas in Monday's season opener.
