There must be reforms at ballparks across America. It's time to put wire mesh screens flush with the foul lines AND the outfield fences.

This sort of ball park mayhem is just uncalled for. Don't people ever think about the CHILDREN?


From the poliboard to the Rant. Some things never change

You criticize the Advocate, and then post a link so everyone can see what you considered " very poor taste." Hello Pot!

Some of those men should be ashamed. It's a home run not a fouled off screamer off the bat. You have plenty of time to set up and get ready for it. Protect the child.


No shite. At nearly 50 and out of shape and never having played baseball my hand eye coordination isn't what it used to be. I would have tried to catch it but would have thrown body in front of her in case I missed. Ball hits me it is going to hurt and cause a good bruise, ball hits a young child and it can cause some serious damage.

Guy in that striped shirt needs to have the frick slapped out of him. He makes no attempt at all to shield the girl.

Old man in the front row, zero fricks given
To be fair the trajectory looks to place the ball 20 feet over his head where he's sitting.
I like the old guy in glasses far left with arms outspread looking like he's saying "WTF you gonna let it hit her, catch the ball".
Just look at the unbridled fear in those "men".
I think it's a great shot, increase awareness of the p*ssification of America.

All those doughboys around her had to do was catch the damn ball instead of dodge it.
We rarely had enough gloves to go around when kids, so always some guys in the outfield barehanded. Even a hot one only stings for a sec.

Advocate put pic of her about to get hit in tweet by matt kennedy

Is that necessary?


Is it necessary to show grieving parents, students after Douglas HS shooting or victims being brought out on stretchers?

You can't blame the media for reporting the news and showing images. We've seen a lot worse.

I feel for the little girl, not because of the Advocate's photo but because she was injured. There were at least two line drive fouls during the game that were lasers which would have done a great deal of harm if they would have hit anyone.

That fat frick in the striped shirt needs to be identified so we can all ridicule him. He shouldn’t be allowed to attend another baseball game. Embarrassing

Two things. Not really in bad taste. Second, Matt Kennedy is very, very douchey.

I agree with you 100%. If that guy in the purple LSU shirt is her dad she is screwed for life. He is a pussy for trying to hide behind the guy with the gold shirt. Article should have been titled (person failed to protect yong girl at LSU baseball game)

If that's the girl's father, she needs to kick him in the gonads when she gets better.

Totally disagree with you. With your logic maybe they should play baseball games with nobody in the stands so no one would have a possibility of getting hit by a ball. If you think that’s what they should do. Please just stay home because you do not belong in a ball park

Damn that's bad luck.

Should somebody start a thread on the poli-board about banning balls to protect the fans?
