Cameraman at Yankee Stadium injured by wild throw from Orioles shortstop Gunnar Henderson

A cameraman was injured Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium and taken to the hospital after he was hit in the head by a wild throw from Baltimore Orioles rookie shortstop Gunnar Henderson.

Positioned right next to the New York Yankees' dugout on the first-base side, Pete Stendel of YES Network was struck by a hurried throw from Henderson, who fired high to first as he tried to complete a double play in the fifth inning.

After the game, YES said Stendel was conscious and undergoing tests in the hospital. No further updates were expected from the network Wednesday night.

"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 following his team's 6-3 victory. "My prayers go out to him. I'm just thankful for the guys that rushed over there to him to help him."

Feel better, Pete Stendel!
