Henderson’s 3-run homer sends the AL-leading Orioles to a 6-3 win over the Ohtani-less Angels

Gunnar Henderson hit a three-run homer and Grayson Rodriguez pitched six solid innings in the Baltimore Orioles' 12th victory in 16 games, 6-3 over the Los Angeles Angels on Monday night. Shohei Ohtani missed only his third game of the season for the Angels, who scratched the two-way superstar about an hour before first pitch after he apparently strained his right oblique muscles in batting practice. About an hour before that, agent Nez Balelo made the first public comments by Ohtani's camp about the slugger's torn elbow ligament, confirming Ohtani is determined to continue his career as both a pitcher and hitter.
