Hitting fifth and starting in left field, Josh Hamilton made his improbable return to Texas Rangers on Monday and is looking to rediscover the All-Star form he displayed there for the better part of five seasons from 2008 to 2012.
Hamilton struck out swinging in his first plate appearance in his second go-around with the Rangers against Cleveland Indians starter Shaun Marcum after Marcum had given up back-to-back first inning home runs to Prince Fielder and Adrian Beltre.
