KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – The Kansas City Royals have announced that additional netting at Kauffman Stadium is being installed and will extend toward the outfield end of each team’s dugout.
The idea is to improve the safety for fans sitting along the foul lines.
Several clubs have considered ways to protect fans from foul balls hit into those seats, and some have suggested that similar netting should be mandatory in major league ballparks.
