Billy Sample drilled two homers and Dave Hostetler smacked his first big league round-tripper as the Rangers breezed past the Royals, 8-1. Sample blasted the first pitch served to him in the first inning into the left field seats and added a solo shot in the eighth. Hostetler connected with the bases empty in the third. Doc Medich scattered six hits in going the route for the first time this season.
