A THREE-YEAR-OLD girl whose skull was fractured by a line drive during batting practice at Dodger Stadium underwent surgery on Tuesday.
In a statement, officials from the Childrens Hospital Los Angeles said they expect the girl will be well enough for release by the end of the week. "The surgery went well and we anticipate a full recovery," said Dr J Gordon McComb, the hospital's head of neurosurgery.
The accident occurred on Monday when Dodgers catcher Russell Martin hit a line drive in the stands near third base, hitting the girl and knocking her unconscious, said Dodgers spokesman Joe Jareck.
Jareck said batting practice continued, but Martin was upset by the incident and has offered to pay for her medical expenses. A hospital spokeswoman would not comment on the girl's condition, citing patient privacy laws.
