Junior Caminero, the 23-year-old third baseman for the Tampa Bay Rays, was hit by a pitch during the third inning of Tuesday's All-Star Game in Philadelphia. St. Louis Cardinals reliever Riley O'Brien threw a 97.6 mph sinker that struck Caminero on the left hand, prompting the AL player to exit the game and return to the clubhouse.
The incident occurred during the mid-summer classic matchup between the American League and National League. Caminero's departure marked an early exit from the All-Star Game for the young player.
