Red Sox's Romy Gonzalez leaves game after collision at first

BOSTON -- Red Sox first baseman Romy Gonzalez left Wednesday night's 6-4 win after colliding with Texas Rangers first baseman Josh Smith while trying to beat out an infield hit.

Both players were down on the ground for a bit, being attended to by their team's athletic trainers. Gonzalez was down the right-field line, while Smith was next to the bag.

There was no word on Gonzalez's injury.

Smith backed up a bit to handle a throw from third and collided with Gonzalez's left leg as he reached the bag, sending the Boston player tumbling.
