On a side note, a guy who used to pitch in high school baseball is suing the company that makes the “Louisville Slugger” bat because one of the batters hit the ball and and the ball hit the pitcher’s head, causing significant trauma. Somehow its all the bat manufacturers fault for making a bat that is too effective and not putting warning labels on its products that such a situation could occur.
