All three of the outfielders the Rangers use against right-handed pitchers will have received a day at designated hitter this series as Josh Hamilton fills the DH spot today for the finale against Seattle. Craig Gentry is the starting center fielder after Leonys Martin played the first two games. The extra outfielder and the injury to first baseman Mitch Moreland has given manager Ron Washington the luxury of resting the regular outfielders with a DH day.
