Rob Butcher, vice president of media relations with the team said “the Reds do not comment on matters of litigation” when asked about the suit.

The lawsuit notes Kimberlee Slusher suffered “concussion; dental injuries causing loss of teeth and resulting in surgery; headaches; right hip sprain; has suffered severe and permanent injuries; has experienced severe pain and suffering and will continue to experience same in the future.”
It also claims she will continue to have medical expenses, has lost wages, and “sustained a loss of the enjoyment of life.”
She bolstered her claim by saying the Reds knew of the danger because less than a month after her injury they announced plans to expand netting at the stadium.
