New York -- Cleveland Indians pitcher David Huff was struck in the head by a line drive off the bat of the New York Yankees' Alex Rodriguez Saturday.

With one out in the bottom of the second inning at Yankee Stadium, Rodriguez blasted a pitch straight back at Huff, who was struck full-on the right side of his head. He immediately collapsed on the mound, lying motionless while Indians teammates an Rodriguez gathered around, motioning for medical attention.

Indians manager Manny Acta and trainers ran to the mound where Huff appeared conscious. After several minutes, a stretcher was brought out, Huff's head was immobilized and he was loaded onto a motorized cart.

As he was being driven off, Huff made a thumbs-up sign.
