    The Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton, the 2010 AL MVP, began a minor league rehab assignment in Double-A Frisco on Wednesday night.

    Hamilton homered and had an infield single in the game. He didn't have a homer in his 11 games this season with the Rangers, but he hit an opposite-field, two-run shot to left as the designated hitter for Frisco in the third inning of an 8-7 win over Midland. Hamilton finished the night 2-for-4 with a groundout and a flyout in his other at-bats.

    "My first at-bat (a groundout), I was a little jumpy. I was a little nervous because I haven't hit in so long," Hamilton said. "I came in my second at-bat, I got out in front of a two-seamer away a little bit. I still got through the ball, didn't pull off."
