Yankees fan sues team for $10M after Cleveland player's bat hits her head

A Yankees fan is suing the team for $10 million after a stray bat hit her in the head during a June game, causing a traumatic brain injury. Stephanie Duluc, 37, was in a fourth-row seat behind home plate on June 2 when Cleveland’s Jose Ramirez lost his bat in the fifth inning. The lawsuit says protective netting was lower there, leaving an unprotected opening. The suit faces the “Baseball Rule,” which generally shields teams from liability unless fan protection was inadequate. Duluc says her injuries prevent her from returning to work as SOMOS Community Care chief of staff.
