Josh Hamilton launched his 42nd home run of the season, helping to power the Rangers in a 9-3 rout over the Mariners on Friday. He finished the night 2-for-5 with a homer, double, two runs scored and two RBI. He's enjoying another MVP-caliber season, hitting .286/.354/.588 with 42 homers, 123 RBI and seven stolen bases. It's looking like the AL MVP race is shaping up to be a three-way competition between Hamilton, Mike Trout and Miguel Cabrera.
