Peña, who is just 23 years old, was representing his home country of the Dominican Republic in the exhibition match. He was playing at shortstop when he collided with a Tigers’ player while trying to make a play. The impact of the collision caused Peña to fall to the ground, clutching his shoulder in pain.
As soon as the incident happened, the entire stadium fell into a hush as everyone feared the worst. Peña was immediately attended to by the medical staff and was eventually taken off the field on a stretcher. The young player was visibly in pain and it was clear that his injury was severe.
