VIDEO: Humberto Quintero makes batter feel the pain for interfering with throw to 3rd

We now know why Blake Swihart was promoted to the majors Saturday over veteran catcher Humberto Quintero.

Quintero, playing for the Boston Red Sox's Triple-A affiliate Pawtucket on Friday, made a minor league hitter pay the ultimate price for not getting out of the way as he attempted to throw out a runner stealing at third base.

The victim is Durham's Luke Maile, who took the throw directly in the stomach.

The 35-year-old Quintero was inked to a minor league deal by the Red Sox in January to provide organizational depth.
