Mitch Moreland is back in the Texas Rangers lineup after spending more than a month on the disabled list with a left hamstring strain. Moreland made five medical rehabilitation starts, and is glad to be back with the big league club.
Moreland said he would have to monitor his hamstring on the base paths, but legged out a pair of doubles on Saturday.
