    @@CoercedJab From what I read, the batter approached the area by the stands to see if the little girl was ok. Since the security guard was likely already there and saw him in distress, she held him. Maybe she didn't walk to him in the middle of the field when he first started looking upset, but that doesn't mean her care isn't genuine. Even after he approached her area, she still could've chosen to stay out of it and not comfort him. I absolutely don't think she hugged him for attention or publicity or any reason other than the most obvious and pure reason, which is that the batter was in distress and in serious need of comfort and she cared and willingly comforted him. It makes sense for viewers to find this touching.

So let's round to 28,500, multiply by 7 years = 199,500. So 0.4% have been injured. While my initial number was an exaggeration to make a point, 0.41% still does not qualify as "many" over the course of 7 years with 199,500 attendings altogether in comparison.

    @@Gigawicket Apparently when you Google "How many people attend baseball games a year" answers with "In the 2019 season, the average attendance at the games in Major League Baseball was 28,317" is a tad confusing, at least to me, who has never attended a major league game. But anyway, according to Insider, "In fact, Major League Baseball's total attendance (74.9 million) is actually greater than the other four sports leagues combined (65.9 million)." So whatever that number is against, 0.0011% is a much better number. My initial point still stands. Thanks for pointing that out though!

    One of my greatest fears. My 8 year old was performing with her dance group at a local baseball game. My husband, 6 year old daughter and I sat in the stands fairly close, so we wouldn't miss any of the performance. The players were practicing throwing the ball on the sideline, and one came right at us. It happened so fast. All I saw was my husband's hand fly up in front of our daughter's face. He caught the ball. I caught my breath. Never again.... nope. One scare of that magnitude was all the lesson I needed.

    Batting Helmets were only introduced in 1958, 30 years after a player was killed by a hit by pitch. Even when catchers had been wearing protection for decades before. They need netting all the way to the foul poles, pitchers need helmets and batting helmets should not be falling off while baserunning. Javier Baez was hit in the back of the head last year or this year by a throw from the right fielder to third base, when his helmet came off halfway through a triple. Not to mention softball pitchers of all ages need cricket helmets when the circle is that close.

    Another thing is that you have to watch were you’re sitting. They have signs to tell you if you’re sitting in foul ball territory (especially if there is little to no netting). So if parents are going to take their little kids to games and sit in those areas, it’s not the players/teams fault if the parents or children get hit.

I leaned to my left and I was so fortunate that it hit my upper leg, and not my knee or worse - my head. I had a crazy bruise for a long time, and I’ll still have dreams about it and wake up in a panic. Honestly, I’m lucky to be alive. It’s weird to think about sometimes. I definitely think there should be netting all around the stadium, I don’t want anyone else to get injured by a foul ball.

    @@josephmccoy3937 The legal clause of agreeing to assume a certain amount of risk when attending a major league baseball game does in fact exist. It's clearly spelled out on the back of the ticket. Let's stick to the incident in this video though. A 2 year old girl sitting on her grandfather's lap at a major league baseball game was hit by a baseball, suffering a fractured skull and likely permanent brain damage. There was safety netting in place but they were seated just beyond the edge of it near the third base line. As a result of this incident the managers of the stadium extended the safety netting even further. I cannot find any information or indication that the parents are suing anyone. I don't know why that is the case considering the fact that the cost of medical care will be substantial and ongoing. I like to think there's the possibility that without the threat of litigation people sometimes are classy enough to step up and do the right thing, without broadcasting it everywhere to showcase what a generous, wonderful and caring human being they are. It's interesting though that in the commentary section of articles about this incident there's always someone whining about "ambulance chasing attorneys", as though frivolous lawsuits are the main issue of concern here. I'd be willing to speculate that such people are sniveling, greedy douchebags that need to get a clue, grow a pair and have a heart. You're the only one talking about suing now, and directing your question towards potential litigation involving the players is not just straying off topic, but it's stupid. Are you being intentionally facetious? Let me be clear; I'm not going to waste anymore of my valuable time answering stupid questions unless you start a GoFundMe page for me. I deserve adequate and generous compensation for my research efforts. Somewhere in the upper area of four figures. That is all.

Because getting hit in the face with a puck, a stick, or worst, the blade of your skate will suck big time. The exact same should be applied to all spectator sports. Why should the audience be protected at a stadium? Because it's 2019. It's not 1919. It's the responsibility of the league to make the stadium as safe as they could for the audience.

    He is obviously a good man, dad and husband. He reacted in a way that made me cry! It was visceral!

    same. but it was a baseball at a missions game. right in the jaw. i didn’t get to keep the ball. i asked all three kids in my class who had it and none of them would give me it. also only one person asked if i was ok. the nurse back at school. not anyone at the game. not my teachers. not the first aid people there. not my classmates. the day i realized that people really don’t like me

    Ok, I get the unfortunate occurrence of hard foul balls, but you can file a law suit because you were accidentally hit. When you enter a ballpark, you accept the risk that you take. Matter of fact, most foul ball injuries come from people not paying attention.
