The New York Yankees (64-51) are focused on holding off the Boston Red Sox and catching the Tampa Bay Rays in a fierce American League East race, but owner Hal Steinbrenner will now have to devote part of his attention to a new lawsuit.
A woman who was hit in the head by a bat while attending a June 2 home game versus the Cleveland Guardians is suing the Yanks for $10 million, according to the New York Post's Peter Senzamici.
Guardians star third baseman Jose Ramirez fouled off a ball when he lost control of his bat, which then flew into the luxury seats and struck Duluc.
There are warning signs behind seats and fans take a certain degree of risk by entering a potentially dangerous environment.
Dulac does not feel that such a requirement was met, alleging that the net covering was “significantly lower” than in nearby sections.
