Why does it make him a 'typical salty homer a's announcer'? No one expected the man to die by him leaning over the railing to catch the ball. If anything, a Sportscenter Top 10 appearance was coming out of it. The A's announcer had no idea the man was hurt after his fall.

because they new that fall was 20 feet. 20 feet head first. this isnt the first accident in baseball where a fan fell over and was seriously hurt. you dont take things like that lightly which they did. they should have known better. they been calling games for a LONG time.

the a's announcers are always salty. i wouldnt put it past them their bitterness got the best of them..

edit:smh: ofcourse the a's fan brigade would be defending that scum bag ray fosse shame on you dudes

This could really happen to anyone. I feel so terrible for his son. Doing something special with his dad will be his last memory. And to think the dad prob just wanted to give the ball to his boy.

Didn't go to law school,

However, I'm all for Tort Reform.

The Rangers will probably break the family off with money, because these organizations avoid litigation (except Frank McCourt).  Whether they are at fault or not.  People go over railings, it happens, and you often don't hear about it because the matters are handled swiftly.  They will not fight in court because it's a bad PR move.

Not Uncommon

A sad example is the toddler who fell from the Staples Center suite.  Infant was 2 years old, the parents snuck into the suite and were too busy taking pictures and their toddler went over the railing,

.  All of a sudden Staples is at fault because of "low" railings?

.  How about the parents for being reckless with their toddler.

You know who is against higher railings? Fans

...and sneaking into a suite, or the child's parents taking pictures is totally irrelevant as to how high a railing should have been to prevent a toddler from falling over it.

I wonder about Josh Hamilton though.....dude has been battling demons for 10+ years or so....seems like this would be the type of instance where he'd fall off the wagon.
