San Diego, CA (My Sportsbook) - San Francisco Giants reliever Joe Martinez is currently resting at a San Francisco hospital, where he is in stable condition and alert after taking a line drive to the head in Thursday's 7-1 win against Milwaukee.

A rocket off the bat of the Brewers' Mike Cameron caught Martinez in the head during the ninth inning. The 2-1 pitch caught the sweet spot of Cameron's bat, and then unfortunately, Martinez straight in the forehead, as he couldn't get his glove up in time. Cameron reached second base on the play and looked visibly upset during an extended stoppage of play to check out Martinez.

He walked off the field with assistance and was taken to the hospital for a CT scan. He suffered a concussion and three small hairline fractures on the right side of his head.

Martinez is expected to make a full recovery. He will remain in the hospital for observation over the next three to four days and was subsequently placed on the 15-day disabled list on Friday.

The club purchased the contract of right-handed pitcher Justin Miller from Fresno of the Pacific Coast League to fill the roster spot.
