The 2-year-old girl who was struck by a foul ball at Minute Maid Park on May 29 suffered a skull fracture and had a seizure, a spokesperson for the family said in a release issued Wednesday. The girl also had subdural bleeding, brain contusions, brain edema and an abnormal electroencephalogram, and is on medication to prevent further seizures.

The family has retained attorney Richard Mithoff to advise about the incident, according to the release. No lawsuit has been filed, but Mithoff detailed the injuries in a letter to the Houston Astros organization advising it that he and family attorney Steve Polotko had been retained.

and nice slowmo webms showing the impact

This shit is happening because nobody is paying attention.

how about don't take a fucking 2 year old to a baseball game?

womp womp

Why don't we eliminate stadiums and have everyone stay at home and watch on VR instead? jesus fucking christ, this is why I watch golf now, no rigging, no refs, no problems, been around since 1500 and hasn't changed much

>takes 2 year old to game
>buys seats in left field foul territory

if they sue I hope the kid dies desu

who are they gonna sue desu ? the stadium ? almora ?

Why doesnt CPS take the kid away from the dad for negligence. Sue the dad for being an idiot.

>watching a sport where the only emotions you feel are boredom or an immediate fear of death

>Suing because your a shitty parent on your cell phone
Even if he wasnt on his phone,you think he would have stopped a ball thats going fast enough to fracture skulls?

Kill yourself

Three things going wrong here
1. Taking your 2 year old daughter to a game and getting seats in foul territory
2. Drinking at a game and/or using your phone
3. Blaming the stadium
Sad situation but at the same time MLB already put netting everywhere.

stfu bootlicker, they are a multi billion organization, they can afford their overpaid fatsos. surely they can afford to pay the family. they should fucking sue the shit out of them.

bait

Fuck atleast take the ball for your kid

hope all baseball fans die

kill them off early tbqh

Pretty much. Every other person dicking around on their phone or picking at the food the person they came with ordered.

I've seen people stop those balls with their bare hands. If you a half decent parent you should at least block it

This. A cricket ball can kill you and only idiots bring babies to the game. Same with the hurling here, the sliotar (hurling ball) is basically the same as a baseball and people do not bring babies along.
It's selfish of the parents that they would risk their children's safety for their own pleasure.

underrated post

if anything the kid should sue her parents

>2. Drinking at a game and/or using your phone
why fucking go if you cant do this?

this is fine if you don't have to take care of a fucking 2 years old though

>be american
>go to stadium
>get shot (with a ball)

Why even have a kid if you cant use them to block balls

>get shot with bullet line drive
TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALLGAME~

and thanks to the DEMOCRATS they can!

>mfw my dad broke his shoulder to shield me once in a fall when i was a little baby
feels good knowing my parents gave a fuck, gonna watch US dab on panama later with him

Soon they'll have nets at stadiums like behind the field goals in NFL

but who was ball?

I mean, you see people move when balls are fouled straight back. Those people have no time at all to react, but they do, because it takes no time at all.

>one less boreball retard
Based foul ball

Lol

Those nets were to stop fans from stealing balls

This is America, lad.
They'll sue anyone near them with money and get paid just to go away.

This. This 'sport' needs to die

yeah i know that , but who could they sue for that one thats what i Wonder , my best bet is the stadium for not having net

it's hard to care, people need to be on guard attending baseball/hockey games. should be common knowledge but there's lots of retards out there

even if the retard parents weren't paying attention, I feel like at least one person in the area would shout "heads up" to get people to fucking look up for a second, how the fuck is this even a problem

fuck baseball, glad that boomer garbage will die in our lifetime

fuck off corporate bootlicking faggot

Hope MLB gets sued to oblivion.

That's what I mean, they could literally sue anyone and probably get some money from them.
They could sue the MLB
They could sue all the joint owners of the stadium. They could sue the teams that were playing. They could sue the owners of the teams, personally.
It won't have to make much rational sense.

No webm?

Take your medicine kiddo. What I said was a factual statement with no ulterior implications.

and how would saying "heads up" to a 100+ mph line drive stop anything, you mongoloid?

so god damn funny thaat for some reason baseball is so apprehensive to putting nets up around the entire first the third base lines like they have behind home plate.

Why even let people in the stadium at all? We should all be required to stay in the safety of our own homes to watch games.

rock hard baseballs scorching in at 100+ mph into groups of people being very dangerous isnt rocket appliances

takes away from the immersion of the game and interaction. I'm tired of safetycucks like you ruining anything interesting for millions because of lottery odd type events. anyone with a god damn bit of intelligence about baseball knows that can happen and accepts that as part of the deal. and nets aren't even the best way to go for either safety or economical reasons, it's NHL style plexiglass, but you don't actually care enough to look into it, it's really just about you stroking your ego because you lack moral agency in your day to day life and want assauge that by enforces measures on other people for which you will not take any part in

There is plenty of time for even a mouth-breathing retard like yourself to react properly to a ball hit at that speed if you were seated where they were. You would, of course, have to be paying attention. What those people did was retarded, and unfortunately their daughter paid the price.

>t. parent of infant
>t. braves game frequenter
>t. 100 section sitter
>t. not a fucking idiot when going to a god damn sports game

>mouth-breathing retard
fuck your ableist slurs you biggot

its not like suing for medical expenses and damages to quality of life isn't uncommon. if these multi-millionaire players and organizations were really as devastated as they pretend to be on national TV, they'd offer to pay without having to be sued.

This, you should be able to bring kids to a ballgame no matter what in [current year], it's just a matter of sitting in seats where they won't fucking die

>Players
Not their fault
