Henderson, Mateo homer in Orioles 2-0 win over Rangers

Gunnar Henderson and Jorge Mateo homered for Baltimore as the Orioles beat the Texas Rangers 2-0.

Rangers outfielder Josh Smith was taken to a hospital after he was hit in the face by a pitch in the third inning.

Smith, a left-handed hitter, was struck on the right side of his face by a 1-0 slider from Danny Coulombe. Smith spun back to his left and dropped to the dirt in the batter’s box, breaking his fall with his left hand while holding his face with his right hand.

Tyler Wells provided a lift for the Orioles with five hitless innings in relief.
