Morton strikes out 10 in 5 innings, O'Hearn and Laureano go deep as Orioles beat Angels 2-0
BALTIMORE (AP) — Charlie Morton struck out a season-high 10 in five innings, Ryan O'Hearn and Ramón Laureano hit home runs and the Baltimore Orioles beat the Los Angeles Angeles 2-0 on Friday night in a game that was delayed by rain before the start and again in the fifth inning. Morton (3-7) surrendered two straight singles to begin the fourth, but he struck out LaMonte Wade Jr. on three pitches before two ground balls got him out of the jam. Morton fanned Zach Neto leading off the fifth. He left after rain forced the second delay. Angels starter Jack Kochanowicz (3-8) used three groundball outs to retire the side in order in the first, but O'Hearn hit his 10th home run on Kochanowicz's first pitch in the second for a 1-0 lead. Laureano led off the fifth with his eighth homer for the final run. The second delay followed after a one-out single by Ramón Urías. Yennier Cano, Gregory Soto and Bryan Baker each pitched a scoreless inning for Baltimore before Félix Bautista had the final two of 14 strikeouts by the Orioles in notching his 12th save in 13 chances. Kochanowicz gave up two runs and four hits in 4 1/3 innings and the Angels used four relievers to finish. The Orioles beat the Angels for the 20th time in the last 25 matchups. LA won 2 of 3 against Baltimore on May 9-11.

More UFC Fight Night ceremonial weigh-in at State Farm Arena on June 13, 2025 in Atlanta, Georgia. (Photo by Cooper Neill/Zuffa LLC) The UFC is back at State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia for the first time since 2019 for a UFC Fight Night card headlined by a welterweight matchup between former UFC 170-pound champion Kamaru Usman and Joaquin Buckley. In the UFC Atlanta co-main event, former UFC strawweight titleholder Rose Namajunas faces Miranda Maverick in a 125-pound matchup. Below is the pertinent information you need to know about tonight's UFC Atlanta fight card. ATLANTA, GEORGIA - JUNE 13: (L-R) Kamaru Usman of Nigeria and Joaquin Buckley face off during the ... More UFC Fight Night ceremonial weigh-in at State Farm Arena on June 13, 2025 in Atlanta, Georgia. (Photo by Cooper Neill/Zuffa LLC) Kamaru Usman (20-4) , the former UFC welterweight champion, enters UFC Atlanta on a three-fight losing skid. The 38-year-old last fought in October 2023, when he dropped a split decision to Khamzat Chimaev in a middleweight matchup. Usman lost his 170-pound crown to Edwards via a head-kick knockout at UFC 278 in August 2022. He dropped the rematch at UFC 286 in March of 2023 via a majority decision. Before his loss, Usman had defended the title five times. Usman is the No. 5 ranked fighter in the UFC's welterweight weight class. He has a career record of 20-3. Joaquin Buckley (21-6) is the No. 7 fighter in the UFC's 170-pound weight class. The 31-year-old Buckley is one quite a run since dropping to welterweight in 2023. Buckley is 6-0 during his current welterweight run with four knockouts and two decision wins. He fought four times in 2024, picking up a knockout win over Vicente Luque, a decision victory over Nursulton Ruziboev, a knockout over two-time UFC title challenger Stephen Thompson. Buckley finished the year with a doctor stoppage TKO win over former interim UFC welterweight champion Colby Covington in December. ATLANTA, GEORGIA - JUNE 13: (L-R) Rose Namajunas and Miranda Maverick face off during the UFC Fight ... More Night ceremonial weigh-in at State Farm Arena on June 13, 2025 in Atlanta, Georgia. (Photo by Cooper Neill/Zuffa LLC) Rose Namajunas (13-7) was 2-1 and had under two years of professional MMA experience when she fought Carla Esparza for the UFC women's strawweight title on the season finale of The Ultimate Fighter Season 20. Esparza won that December 2014 bout by submission, claiming the inaugural 115-pound title. Over the next few years, Namajunas was essentially learning on the job, and she learned well, running up a record of 4-1 between October 2015 and April 2017. In November 2017, Namajunas stepped into the Octagon to face then-UFC strawweight titleholder Joanna Jedrzejczyk. The champ was a -700 favorite on fight night, while the challenger checked in at +500. Namajunas stunned the MMA world that night, scoring an upset first-round knockout win to become the champ. Proving her victory was not a fluke, Namajunas defeated Jedrzejczyk by decision in their rematch in April 2018. Namajunas lost the title in her second attempted defense when Jessica Andrade scored a slam knockout win at UFC 237. A non-title fight victory over Andrade, who dropped the belt in August 2019 to Zhang Weili, followed. That win earned Namajunas another shot at the title. In April 2021, Namajunas regained the belt with a perfectly timed head kick to stop Weili in the first round. She defeated the former champ by decision in their rematch in November 2021. Namajunas surrendered the title to Esparza in May 2022 in a tepid performance. Since losing the title, Namajunas is 2-2 at 125 pounds, losing a decision to Manon Fiorot in September 2023, defeating Amanda Ribas by decision in March 2024 and beating Tracy Cortez by decision in July 2024. In her most recent outing, Namajunas dropped a decision to Erin Blanchfield in November. Namajunas is the No. 7 ranked UFC women's flyweight fighter. Miranda Maverick (15-5) joined the UFC in 2020 after spending most of her time with Invicta FC. At the time, she was 7-2 and coming off a 'Performance of the Night' bonus-winning decision win over Pearl Gonzalez. Maverick opened her UFC career with two wins. The promotion then matched her against another young fighter, Maycee Barber. Barber was on a two-fight losing skid at the time. She ended that run of defeats with a split-decision win over Maverick. Things did not get any easier for Maverick in her next matchup, as the UFC booked her opposite Erin Blanchfield, who was 1-0 in the UFC, but riding a four-fight winning streak. Blanchfield kept that winning streak intact with a unanimous decision win over Maverick. Since those back-to-back setbacks, Maverick has gone 6-1 with her only loss being a June 2023 decision to Jasmine Jasudavicius. She is 4-0 in her most recent bouts, and coming off a unanimous decision win over Jamey-Lyn Horth in December. Maverick is ranked 11th in the UFC's 125-pound division.

Usman has received 70 percent of the bets on this fight, while 56 percent of the handle has come in on Buckley. The betting pick is for Buckley to win via decision, but there's a chance of a Buckley knockout victory.

Twins' Royce Lewis suffers left hamstring strain late in another rout
As if the result weren't bad enough, Royce Lewis suffered an injury late in Friday's losing effort. Routed by their opponents for the fourth time in nine days, the Minnesota Twins suffered perhaps an even bigger loss when the young third baseman pulled up while running out a base hit late in a 10-3 defeat at the Houston Astros. After losses of 12 and 13 runs to the Texas Rangers earlier this week, the Twins dropped to 36-33. Advertisement Lewis exited Friday's game with a left hamstring strain after singling into the left-field corner in the ninth inning. He homered earlier and finished 2-for-4. 'We don't know a lot right now,' Twins manager Rocco Baldelli told reporters in Houston. 'He does have a left hamstring strain of some kind. I can't tell you how severe at this time. He actually tested relatively well after the game upon examination in the training room. We're going to bring him in (Saturday) and check him out, see how he comes in. A lot of times, you learn a lot just by how the guy shows up the next day, how he can move around, what he's capable of doing. That'll tell us a lot.' The occurrence is the latest in a series of leg injuries for Lewis, who has twice torn the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee. Lewis missed the first 35 games of this season after suffering a left hamstring strain March 16. He also missed 58 games of the 2024 season with a right quad strain suffered when running the bases on Opening Day. After his return, Lewis missed 16 games because of a right adductor strain. Despite missing the final 10 games of the 2023 season with a hamstring strain, Lewis returned and starred in the playoffs, hitting four home runs in 22 at-bats, including two off Kevin Gausman in Game 1 of an American League wild-card victory over the Toronto Blue Jays. After a lengthy absence to start the 2025 season, Lewis struggled at the plate. But Friday's appearance was yet another sign Lewis was getting back on track. Since he was given a day off to work in the cage on June 2, Lewis was 11-for-28 with five doubles and a homer. He went hitless in his first 15 at-bats after returning on May 6. He also snapped an 0-for-32 stretch with a run-scoring double in a June 3 victory at the Athletics.
