That's pretty stupid.
Why I choose to sit in the nose-bleed section at Yankee Stadium.
I always say it. You have to keep your eye on the ball. You can’t make a play if you don’t see it coming.
Hope she’s okay.
What are the odds of being hit by a foul ball that way?
They have the protective netting for that very reason. But the netting apparently stretches out and hit her anyway.
Ballparks will now have to put up stronger fencing or nets or plexi glass behind home plate.
Remember a girl got hit by a hockey puck at a Columbus Blue Jackets game a few years ago, and died? If I recall correcly hockey teams increaed the height of plexiglass around the ice after that.
It’s her fault. Should have been looking.
Foul!
I get annoyed when people think they have a right to get to their seats while there is actually something happening on the field. Wait until the ball is sent back to the pitcher, then you have 30 seconds to do what you want to do in most cases because it has gotten so slow.
And I hope they don’t make it HARDER to see the game now, just because of a one-in-a-million incident. Bad things happen sometimes.
Some of you guys are real cold. The stadium should have better protection. She or you could have been staring at the batter and still have been hit.
