Hmm... One out of forever, maybe? Thats insane... And he lobbied for a screen to protect from exactly this sort of thing happening?? I'll bet the park will do something about this by the end of the week now...

Crazier things have happened in ballparks to be sure, but this is pretty odd. Not to mention, because she wasn't hurt too badly, hilarious.
