I thought you were allowed big rocks too! 
As for the kid... yeah tough break...
But I dont think the parents are going to win this lawsuit..
It would seem that first they would have to prove that if the ball had been hit with a wooden bat the same injury would not have occured.
And if they could prove this.. then the next logical culprit would be the league for not disallowing the use of these bats. |
I am certain that somewhere, there's an injury disclaimer that someone had to sign in order to allow their kid to play ball in the little league.
They KNOW someone's going to get hurt if you play a sport. They always set up these things that says, essentially, "I acknowledge that there's a possibility that my kid may be injured, and knowing this, I won't sue if it happens."
Failure to sign means the kid will not be allowed to play.
I
know they must have signed such a waiver. I
know their attorney is probably looking desperately for a way around said waiver.
"But we didn't know it was going to be this serious, so yr honor, we need to be released from this waiver so we can get money!"
