By Max MolskiA cameraman was sent to the hospital after getting struck in the head by an errant throw during Wednesday’s game between theThe throw came from Baltimore’s Gunnar Henderson. The rookie shortstop was attempting to complete a double play in the fifth inning when he sailed a toss past first baseman Ryan O’Hearn. The ball flew into the camera well to the right side of the Yankees’ dugout and hit Pete Stendel, a YES Network cameraman.
“Every time that a ball goes over the first baseman or even a foul ball from the hitter, you don’t want to see it going towards a fan. It just happened to be in the wrong spot, and I hope he’s doing all right,” Henderson said after the game. “My prayers go out to him. I’m just thankful for the guys that rushed over there to help him.”
The game was delayed for 17 minutes as the Yankees’ training staff and other medical personnel attended to Stendel. Stendel waved and gave a peace sign to the crowd as he was carted off the field.
