On Sept. 20, a foul ball off the bat of Yankees infielder Todd Frazier struck the face of a toddler sitting in the seats down the third-base-line at Yankee Stadium.
Players and fans looked on in horror as a crowd formed around the child to make sure she was alright. Frazier fell to his knees, struggling to watch the aftermath. Play was temporarily paused as the entire stadium – and all those watching at home – looked on in disbelief.
The toddler’s father told ABC-NY that “she’s stable,” adding “it’s going to be a long process.” Still, the moment that the 105-mph foul ball struck her, the sports world feared the worst.
