Boy injured by foul ball at Wrigley heads home





A 7-year-old boy whose skull was fractured by a foul ball at Wrigley Field is doing well and has been released from the hospital.

Dominic DiAngi of Frankfort headed home from Children?s Memorial Hospital on Wednesday afternoon.

He wore a Cubs ball cap as he met with news reporters. His father, Peter DiAngi, says his son now has his ?same old twinkle in his eye.?

Last Thursday, Dominic was sitting behind the Cubs? dugout during an afternoon game when a foul ball off Ted Lilly?s bat struck him in the head. Paramedics took him to Children?s Memorial.

The game was the first major league game the boy had ever attended.

Lilly and Cubs first baseman Derrek Lee visited the boy Saturday at the hospital.

Thats refreshing, hope they give him season tix for next season or it would be cool if they made a run in the playoffs or to the World Series for them to generously give him seats to the whole sha-bang.....kid may be not willing with a bad experience and all but its the LEAST a mega million dollar club can do is afford a GOOD MEMORY for the kid versus the one he has now!!!

But then again, it is a world of greed so:shrug:

I often wonder how several people don't get killed on fouls every season. Seems half the people at the game aren't even paying attention or watching. This youngster probably just couldn't react that quickly. Evidently he said he couldn't wait to go to another game. Good for him.
