Utah Boy Clubbed with Baseball Bat Awarded $6.7M in Damages
A Provo, Utah boy, whose family sued a sports tournament organizer alleging negligence in a case where the 7-year-old received a traumatic brain injury after being accidentally struck in the head by a batter taking a warm-up swing while returning a foul ball to the playing field in 2004, was awarded $6.7 million when the company was found to be 92.5 percent responsible for the boy’s injuries.
