Manny Ramirez walked twice and singled in his spring training debut as the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Texas Rangers, 4-3, at Camelback Ranch in Phoenix.

Despite his perfect on-base percentage, the Dodgers' slugger complained about his timing at the plate. But he said his legs — which delayed his Cactus League debut for one day — felt fine.

"It takes time, that's why we're here in spring training, to get a lot of at-bats, make a lot of mistakes and get it out of your system and move on to the season," said Ramirez, making his first game appearance since signing a two-year, $45-million contract.

Batting third in the lineup as the designated hitter, Ramirez walked in his first two at-bats against Texas starter Doug Mathis. He then singled to center in the fifth off Elizardo Ramirez before being replaced by a pinch runner.

CANO, MARTE HURTING AFTER WORLD CLASSIC

Yankees second baseman Robinson Cano and reliever Damaso Marte are scheduled to be examined by doctors today and won't immediately play after rejoining New York following the World Baseball Classic.

Cano has tightness in the back of his right shoulder. He has felt it all spring training but didn't think it was serious.

Cano didn't tell the Yankees about the tightness before leaving for the WBC, which he feels at times when extending his right arm on a throw. There is no discomfort when he hits.

He did have his ailing shoulder examined by the Dominican team doctor.

Marte has tightness in the left side of his chest, which he thinks stems from weightlifting. He hopes to only miss three or four days.
