WOMAN BALL FAN HURT.

Hit by Batted Ball at Afternoon's
Game With Milwaukee.

A young woman was struck and slightly injured by a batted ball at Association park yesterday during the final game between Kansas City and Milwaukee. She was seated in a box at the east end of the grandstand, near third base. It is the only section of the boxes unprotected by a wire netting and has recently been erected.

Barry McCormick, an exceptionally hard hitter, was at bat. He drove the ball on a line hard and straight. It struck a glancing blow on the young woman's cheek. She was taken home and the attending physician stated she was not seriously hurt. It was said the young woman was Miss Hazel Wilson of 1115 Bales avenue.
