At least one of the eyes of Roeckel and his face suffered “catastrophic and permanent injuries,” said the trial. He said that a stadium design defect had contributed to him incapable of seeing the fault of the ball when he came in his direction.

Roeckel highlighted certain architectural elements which, according to him, have played a role in alleged design problems. More specifically, an overhang that creates a limited view with regard to objects that move from the field and to the stands.
The trial also underlined the Coors Field net, saying that the protective equipment has not stretched adequately throughout the stadium.
However, they were not the only grievances that the fan had. The trial also disputed with the “longtime bad performance of the Rockies on the ground [has] Contributed to an environment on the day of the match in which spectators, in particular those of luxury suites, are less involved in action on the field. “”
The Rockies have not celebrated a winning season since 2018.
Last year, the 121 defeats of the Chicago White Sox set the MLB record. The rocks remain at the rate to break this unwanted record.
