Omar Infante leaves game after taking pitch to jaw (VIDEO)


There was a scary moment in Kansas City Monday night, as Royals second baseman Omar Infante was hit in the face by a pitch from Rays right-hander Heath Bell in the bottom of the seventh inning. 

Infante appeared to be struck in the jaw and was treated by Kansas City's trainers before the bloodied player left the game. As you can see in the hard to watch video, Bell's pitch caught Infante pretty cleanly on the chin before he could get out of the way:


The injury looked fairly serious and the Kansas City Star's Andy McCullough provided this update:




After the game, Bell expressed concern over his former teammate's injury:
