If you have been viewing this blog a while, you should know that I am a big Josh Hamilton fan. The Hammer is at it again. He is showing he is the real deal. After finishing up an impressive spring in the Cactus league, he has started hot on the regular baseball season:
His game-winning, two-run homer in the ninth will be replayed over and over again. That’s the moment that Rangers fans will remember for a long time.
“First pitch, had no clue what it was, swung and hit it,” Hamilton said, describing the moment for the FSN Southwest crew. He made it through the interview without getting a pie in the face, sporting a big smile the whole time.
Hamilton flashed tools that are rarely found in 6-4, 240-pound packages while making three key plays to keep the Rangers in the game. He made two great running catches to rob the Mariners of extra-base hits and beat out a chopper to first to get on base before scoring his first run.

I saw that game. All of his tools were on display.
He made one of the sweetest run downs in CF I ever saw. Beat out a slow roller, to get an infield hit. And then hit that monster shot to win the game.
He made a big fan out of me.
