Turner arrives to camp late after attending jury duty

When duty calls.

Washington Nationals shortstop Trea Turner was forced to miss the start of camp on Wednesday after he was summoned for jury duty. Luckily for the talented 23-year-old and the Nationals, his time in court was short lived, as he was told he could leave.

Nationals manager Dusty Baker said the team would have been understanding if the young infielder had to miss an extended period of time. Still, it's clear Turner had a preference.

"When they call, you don't have much choice," Baker said, according to Cut4. "(Turner) seemed pretty happy about not doing it though."
