The Los Angeles Dodgers are reportedly set to become the latest team to extend the netting at their home field, continuing an MLB-wide trend aimed at increasing fan safety.
Arash Markazi of the Los Angeles Times reported the Dodgers are set to have netting to the foul poles in place by August.
Linda Goldbloom, a 79-year-old woman, died of a brain hemorrhage after being hit in the head with a foul ball at the stadium last season. A woman was also struck in the head by a foul ball by Cody Bellinger in June but did not suffer serious injuries.
