ARLINGTON - Who says baseball is losing fans? Apparently, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, who two years ago backed out of an opening day first pitch with the Rangers and publicly vowed not to support MLB any longer, is back. Must be the new rules. The Rangers announced Tuesday that Abbott, along with former President George W. Bush, will participate in the first pitch ceremony prior to Thursday's opener against Philadelphia. Bush and Abbott will accompany Lt. Reuben T. Mankin of the Texas Rangers law enforcement unit to the mound.
