    Josh Hamilton hasn't been fazed by his June woes at the plate.

    The Texas Rangers slugger put those struggles behind him in the fifth inning, coming through with a powerful swing to help make 21-year-old Martin Perez a winner in his first career start. He hit a three-run home run to cap a big inning and the Rangers extended their winning streak to five games, beating the Oakland Athletics 7-2 on Saturday night.
