In his first game back from the DL after suffering a torn right testicle Adrian Beltre hears the The Nutcracker Suite when he steps into the batter’s box

In his first game back from the DL after suffering a torn right testicle when a bad hop grounder hit him in the groin last month, Adri�n Beltre hears the The Nutcracker Suite when he steps into the batter’s box. Mariner teammate Ken Griffey Jr. arranged to have the Safeco Field PA system play the waltz to have some fun with the third baseman, who decided not wear a protective cup until today’s game.

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.
