Ramirez makes season debut for Mariners against Rangers

Apr 15, 2007 - 3:44 PM Texas (5-6) at Seattle (4-3), 4:05 pm EDT

SEATTLE (Ticker) -- With all the weather delays the Seattle Mariners have had to contend with, new addition Horacio Ramirez has not yet had a chance to make his official American League debut.

That will change Sunday when Ramirez takes the mound in the rubber game of a three-game series against the Texas Rangers at Safeco Field.

Ramirez (NR) came over from the Atlanta Braves in the offseason in exchange for hard-throwing reliever Rafael Soriano, but had his first start wiped out of the record books due to four games being snowed out in Cleveland last weekend and Thursday's game in Boston being postponed due to rain.

The 27-year-old lefthander threw 98 pitches, walking three and allowing three unearned runs April 6 before the game was called in the fourth inning.

The Rangers will counter with their own new addition, righthander Brandon McCarthy. The 23-year-old was acquired in the offseason for prospect John Danks and expected to step in behind veterans Kevin Millwood and Vicente Padilla in Texas' rotation.

McCarthy (1-1, 3.75 ERA) pitched well in his start Monday against Tampa Bay, yielding two runs in six innings to pick up the win.

The Mariners won Saturday's game, 8-3, despite Rangers' slugger Sammy Sosa belting his 590th career homer off starter Miguel Batista.

Adrian Belte and Jose Guillen each hit two run blasts for their first homers of the season.
