That's a little extreme. a little extreme but he speaks truth. I've sat right above the netting behind home plate before, and those balls were flying past us like hot cakes. If you weren't always on alert, there was always that chance of being hit by a ball. And after nailing his wife in the ribs, he realizes that it's not such a crazy idea to think that you can seriously injure somebody sitting up there there are a lot of seats I wouldn't take my child too - I don't think its extreme at all. That's the point. If you're concerned about the possibility of an injury, then why stay there? When me and my wife took our newborn to the park we made sure that we sat in a seat that took out the risk of our baby getting hurt. The seats aren't the greatest but you know your child is safe. Considering the size of the major league ballparks I think it's extreme to compare a taking a child to the ballpark to playing Russian Roulette.
