Kyle Seager Receives Touching Letter From Young Astros Fan Hit by His Bat
Posted Aug 5, 2013
In the first series after the All-Star break, the Seattle Mariners were in Houston taking on the Astros when Mariner’s third baseman Kyle Seager lost control of his bat on a swing and ended up tossing it into the stands. Seager’s bat landed on a young Astros fan named Lyle Raymond who was unharmed by the incident, but is foregoing his option to keep the bat as a souvenir.
