the guy actually died of a heart attack on the way to the hospital

and how weird is it that this guy and the guy who fell out of the upper deck last year were both local firefighters

Damn so he falls and then dies of a heart attack?

Crazy.

It's really sad and I feel for the family, but I hope that baseball doesn't overreact like hockey did when that little girl died.  I can totally see them outlawing throwing balls into the stands or putting up netting at the fence or some shtein.

My best guess is that they'll work to increase the safety of the railings - try to make them more fool-proof.

If the Rangers or Hamilton gets sued, though... ballplayers may stop tossing the balls just to protect themselves.

In this particular case, why not just use some safety net?  I'm not talking about a net that goes vertical like the ones behind home plate, just put a net over that little opening between the railing and the top of the wall.  Not only would the net catch someone who falls over the railing, but I'm sure in the past there have been plenty of people in that first row who have dropped cameras or hats or whatever into that space, so the net would catch all of that stuff too.

He went into full arrest BECAUSE of his head injury.

I know that.

What I was saying is he survives the fall, talks to the paramedics about his son and probably thinks "holy shtein I survived that, I will be ok"

And then goes into cardiac arrest.

Crazy and terribly sad.

Jeter just got # 3,000.

With a home run.

well the jokes on him because he gets to go home and plow minka kelly tonight

loser.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Josh Hamilton drilled a fan in the face with a foul ball last night.  Teenage boy required medical attention but was ok.  Hamilton's heart probably sank into his gut.

Somebody stop this guy before he kills again.

Hamilton has issues to begin with and this shtein can't be helping.

I didn't realize Gregg was that big.

Gregg should have pulled a Nolan Ryan on his ass.

On another note; many said that Riggelman would never get another baseball job after his walkout on the Nats. He will be interviewing with Bochy and Sabean in SF after the break.

I can't stand that phony piece of shtein, Ortiz.  What a farging crybaby flag.
