Yankees fan sues team for $10M after stray bat flew into stands and hit her in the head Stephanie Duluc was left with a traumatic brain injury after a stray bat flew into the stands and knocked her over during a June 2 Yankees game A Yankees fan is suing the team for $10 million after she was hit in the head by a flying baseball bat as she sat in the stands for a June game. Stephanie Duluc, 37, was sitting in a fourth-row seat directly behind home plate during the team’s June 2 game when Cleveland Guardians infielder Jose Ramirez’s bat went soaring into her section during the fifth inning, according to a lawsuit filed in Manhattan federal court, according to the New York Post. Protective netting meant to shield fans from speedy foul balls and airborne bats did not keep Duluc safe. The bat hit Duluc “with such force that it knocked her from her seat and violently threw her to the ground, causing her to sustain severe and permanent injuries,” the lawsuit claims. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/yankees-fan-hit-with-baseball-bat-b3028925.html
