Paul Steinbach Headshot

Details on the impact to a two-year-old of a foul ball to the head have emerged nearly a month after the incident occurred at Houston's Minute Maid Park.

A lawyer for the child's family told USA Today Sports that the girl suffered a skull fracture and experienced a seizure resulting from the foul ball off the bat of the Chicago Cubs' Albert Almora, who was visibly shaken by the May 29 ordeal.
