Rangers pitcher Keone Kela handles another test in outing Monday

Rangers pitching prospect Keone Kela was able to work through another difficult situation Monday. Kela worked around an opening walk and retired the final two batters of the inning.

"He was able to handle the situation, to slow himself down and power his fastball through the strike zone," manager Jeff Banister said. "The way he used his fastball was pretty impressive."

He is the first Rangers pitcher to throw on consecutive days this spring.
