Hamilton's take
Josh Hamilton says he was rejected several times when he tried to speak to Angels owner Arte Moreno during the slugger's disappointing two-year stint in Los Angeles.
The 2010 AL MVP, who returned to the Rangers in a trade last month, said Saturday he reached out during both subpar seasons after signing as a free agent. He said he tried again after self-reporting a cocaine and alcohol relapse and undergoing shoulder surgery this year.
Hamilton said he was turned away each time by general manager Jerry Dipoto or team president John Carpino.
Cabrera hits No. 400
Miguel Cabrera of the Detroit Tigers hit his 400th career home run, a milestone that became official after an early rain delay.
Cabrera connected for a solo drive to center in the first inning at St. Louis. The homer broke a tie with Andres Galarraga for the most homers by a Venezuelan-born player.
Surgery for Marshall
Lefthanded reliever Sean Marshall will have more shoulder surgery next week, ending his chances of coming back in the final year of his contract with Cincinnati.
