Hunter goes distance in Rangers' win

Rangers manager Ron Washington talked before Sunday's opener of a scheduled doubleheader about the importance of avoiding a mental tailspin with the wet Texas weather seemingly halting the team's momentum. The Rangers followed Washington's lead, swatting three home runs to back rookie right-hander Tommy Hunter's complete-game effort in a 7-2 victory over Seattle at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.

Hunter collected his first complete game, improving his record to 8-3. Hunter is the second Rangers rookie to throw a complete game at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.
