Angels broadcaster Langston hospitalized in Houston

Los Angeles Angels radio broadcaster and former MLB pitcher Mark Langston was hospitalized in Houston Friday night following a medical emergency.

The team has not stated the nature of the ailment, but the Los Angeles Times reported CPR was administered in the radio booth at Minute Maid Park.

Langston, 59, had read the starting lineups for the series opener between the Angels and Astros just before the emergency, the Los Angeles Daily News reported.

Victor Rojas, the television voice of the Angels, tweeted after the game that Langston was "doing well."

"Scary sight tonight watching things unfold in the booth two doors down from us. Currently sitting with Langer in ER and he's doing well, sharing some laughs about his pizza intake in NYC this week. Keep Mark in your prayers as they continue to run through protocols," Rojas wrote.

The Angels are expected to update Langston's condition on Saturday. He has been the Angels' radio color announcer since 2012.

Langston was a four-time All-Star during his pitching career, in which he went 179-158 with a 3.97 ERA and 81 complete games. He played for the Seattle Mariners (1984-89), Montreal Expos (1989), Angels (1990-97), San Diego Padres (1998) and Cleveland Indians (1999).
