ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer retired 15 of the 16 batters he faced over five scoreless innings in his season debut, rookie Wyatt Langford extended his RBI streak to five games and the Texas Rangers beat Kansas City 4-0. That completed a three-game sweep sweep. José Ureña pitched the final four innings for his first save and extended the Rangers’ season-best streak of 22 consecutive scoreless innings pitched. Josh Smith homered as the Rangers matched their season high by winning their fourth game in a row. The Royals ended a 2-7 road trip.
