A judge has ruled that a foul ball lawsuit can continue against the Pittsburgh Pirates, Major League Baseball and a municipal authority that owns public sports and entertainment venues in the area.
An usher at PNC Park in April helped Wendy Camlin to her seat when a foul ball hit the netting behind home plate and struck her in the head.
The game was delayed more than 20 minutes while she was taken away on a stretcher.
Her attorneys had said her case wasn’t subject to a state law that states teams and stadiums aren’t liable for injuries as long as reasonable precautions were taken.
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reported the county judge agreed with Camlin’s lawyers last Thursday.
Camlin seeks more than $35,000 in damages from each defendant.
