The woman was standing in the first row behind home plate with her back toward the field... That's pretty stupid.

Her head also must have been pretty close to the netting?

Why I choose to sit in the nose-bleed section at Yankee Stadium.

I always say it. You have to keep your eye on the ball. You can’t make a play if you don’t see it coming.

About the same odds as three years ago of the Cubs and Pirates occupying two of the three top spots in their division.

It does give another reason besides courtesy to not step in front of others while the ball is in play...

Haha! She’s probably better off she had her head turned away. Wouldn’t had been pretty if she was facing the play.

What are the odds of being hit by a foul ball that way?
They have the protective netting for that very reason. But the netting apparently stretches out and hit her anyway.
Ballparks will now have to put up stronger fencing or nets or plexi glass behind home plate.
Remember a girl got hit by a hockey puck at a Columbus Blue Jackets game a few years ago, and died? If I recall correcly hockey teams increaed the height of plexiglass around the ice after that.

They also installed netting.

I couldn’t see the net. I’m sure it’s there, but maybe my eyes are bad, or the camera makes it hard to see the net. I think changes will be made art this.

No, I did not.
But I don’t have to watch a video to know that it is foolish to turn your back on the field of play at a baseball game.

"You have to keep your eye on the ball." Normally, I agree, but she is behind a net barrier that is supposed to stop exactly this occurrence. I think she has a liability case.
