What a load of hooey. Who would they have sued if the kid broke his neck sliding into second? Should they sue the league?

I have five children. I cannot fathom the grief of one of them dying. I cannot fathom blaming the bat company, either. They sell bats that help you hit the ball harder and farther.

I cut myself pretty bad a few years ago making a ham sandwich. I did not sue the knife company. They sold me what I wanted: a very sharp knife.

There was a case several years back when a bat company was sued for some serious injuries in Slow Pitch softball. ASA had tested the bats and ok'd them but, the manufacturer was selling a hotter bat than the one tested. The bat company in that case did something wrong. In this case, the bat company did not do anything wrong.
