Adrian Beltre was finally in the lineup for the Texas Rangers on Monday night, making the debut in his 20th major league season and resuming his pursuit of 3,000 hits. He was batting fourth and playing third base after missing the season so far because of a right calf strain. The 38-year-old Beltre went into this season 52 hits shy of 3,000 for his career. Gallo was batting seventh against the Rays and playing first base for Mike Napoli, who had some tightness in his back. Beltre went seven for 17 in three games during extended spring training in Arizona before rejoining the Rangers for the start of their eight-game homestand.
