Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Jakob Junis was taken away in an ambulance after being hit in the neck by a line drive during batting practice on Monday at PNC Park.

Junis was standing in the outfield when he was struck by the hard-hit ball off the bat of teammate Alika Williams.

Junis remained down for about 20 minutes while being treated by medical teams. The Pirates said he was conscious, alert and responsive and sent to a hospital for further evaluation.
