Chicago Cubs: Major League Baseball asking teams to improve safety nets

In the attempt to prevent any more serious injuries, Major League Baseball has asked clubs including the Chicago Cubs to make certain changes to their safety nets behind home plate and around the dugout area.

All I have to say about this is it’s about time. Yes, I’m well aware that fans, no matter where they may be seated, are always in danger when attending a baseball game even if it isn’t at the professional level.

There have been hundreds of fans either hit by a foul ball or worse, a baseball bat that slipped through a players grip.
