Marin County has reached an out-of-court settlement with a man who lost an eye and suffered a traumatic brain injury after being struck by a ball from by a pitching machine at McInnis Park Golf Center.
“Baynum did not inspect and repair the batting cage machines in a competent and workmanlike manner, causing the pitching machine for Cage No. 8 to operate in a dangerous and defective manner,” the suit alleged. “After both warning lights on the pitching machine went dark, falsely indicating that the pitching session had ended,” the suit continues, “plaintiff leaned his bat against the netting and threw balls back towards the machine before bending down at home plate to pick up a ball. He was then struck directly in the face by a ball pitched after the warning lights were off.”
When the county extended its lease agreement with Tayman in 2017, Chris Chamberlain, assistant director of county parks, told county supervisors that “the partnership with Tayman has been extremely successful to date.”
