2009 – The Rangers have double vision today as they sweep a pair at home from the Blue Jays. Both games end on a 5 – 2, score, with Frank Francisco picking up the save each time. CF Josh Hamilton hits two home runs for Texas, ending a 23-game homer drought and finally reaching double figures for the year, but 3B Michael Young injures his hamstring running out a ground ball in the nitecap and will miss at least two weeks.
