A foul ball off the bat of Chicago Cubs outfielder Albert Almora struck a four-year-old girl in a scary scene on Wednesday night.
Almora was devastated after seeing his foul hit the young girl.
On Thursday morning, MLB issued a statement, shared by Bob Nightengale of USA Today Sports:
After the game, Almora said he wished there was netting around the entire stadium to prevent other incidents like this one: “Obviously I want to put a net around the whole stadium.”
Thankfully, the girl struck by Almora’s foul is expected to be OK.
