Yankees fan sues team for $10 million after being hit by a bat

Stephanie Duluc is suing the New York Yankees for $10 million after a flying bat struck her during the June 2 game against the Cleveland Guardians. The bat, which came from infielder Jose Ramirez, hit Duluc in the head while she sat in the fourth row behind home plate, causing severe injuries, including a traumatic brain injury. The lawsuit claims inadequate protective netting contributed to the incident, leaving a gap that allowed the bat to reach the stands. Duluc has stated her injuries have hindered her ability to work and perform daily activities. The case could face challenges due to the 'Baseball Rule,' which historically limits a team's liability for injuries from foul balls and bats.
