The two-year-old girl who received a pitch during a Houston Astros game against the Chicago Cubs of the MLB , the professional baseball league in the United States , suffers "irreparable brain damage" and will have to receive medication "for the rest of her life, "according to a family spokesman, in a statement that includes the 'Houston Chronicle'.
The incident occurred last May at Minute Maid Park, Astros Stadium, when Chicago Cubs hitter Albert Almora Jr threw the ball. The family spokesman reported that the girl, whose identity has not been revealed, suffered a skull fracture , has had multiple seizures and has affected the nervous system. "She has been able to continue with her routine as a child of her age, although with her parents watching her all the time."
The spokesman declined to comment on the alleged legal actions that could be taken against the Astros. The MLB has announced that during the start of the 2020 season, the 30 teams in the league will have extended networks in their stadiums to prevent such incidents.
