MEXICO CITY — New York Yankees outfielder Oscar González left the team's exhibition loss to Diablos Rojos after he fouled a ball off his face in the second inning. González got jammed on an inside pitch and the ball ricocheted off the handle of his bat directly up into his face, knocking off his helmet. He was sitting upright as he was driven off the field in a cart. The Yankees said González had a right orbital fracture and would remain in the hospital overnight before undergoing tests Tuesday. Jose Trevino had two hits and two RBIs for New York in its 8-5 loss.
