Texas Rangers outfielder Josh Hamilton doesn't have the medical tests to prove it, but prior to Game 3 of the World Series on Saturday Hamilton said he believes he is playing through the pain associated with a sports hernia."All signs point to it, but there are no tests, no MRI," said Hamilton, who entered Saturday 0-for-7 in the World Series and without a home run in 48 postseason at-bats. "I've talked about not being as aggressive because it hurts when I'm aggressive. But, I just have to go play my game."Hamilton has previously said that he is dealing with a left groin strain since the end of the regular season and that it has become increasingly worse as the postseason wears on.He was in the Rangers' lineup for a pivotal Game 3, batting in his usual three-spot and playing center field. He went 1-for-5 with a run scored in Texas' 16-7 loss. Source: ESPN
I just wanted to bump this. Matt Holliday leaves with an ouchy on his pinky but Hamilton has been playing through EXTREME pain.
