MLB spring training is wrapping up this week and with the regular season about to start teams are making their final roster decisions before opening day. That means some players are having their hearts broken and being sent back to the minor leagues, but there are also a select few getting the best news of their lives. On Monday night Rangers pitcher Carter Baumler got that good news in an unexpected place.
Baumler had just induced two ground ball outs to start the top of the fifth inning when manager Skip Schumaker called timeout and walked out to the mound. As catcher Danny Jansen and the infielders surrounded a confused Baumler, he was informed that he had made the opening day roster and would officially become a big leaguer.
