A man who was left blind in one eye — at least temporarily — and ultimately might lose the eye after a foul ball struck him in the face at Wrigley Field this summer has filed a lawsuit against the Cubs and Major League Baseball, alleging that they failed to install enough safety netting to protect him and other fans.
At a Monday news conference, John “Jay” Loos, 60, said he has undergone three surgeries to repair his severely damaged left eye and the five bones in his face shattered by a foul ball that struck him as he sat down the first-base line during a game between the Cubs and the Pirates on Aug.
