More details to this question:
On 4/14/12 my son was up to bat and took a pitch to the back of his helmet. He suffered a TBI, had emergent brain surgery, subsequent brain surgery, and two months of rehab at Baylor. He is still suffering from this let alone the emotional pain and suffering. With MLB changing their helmets today to prevent such injuries...is he entitled to any damages from faulty helmet design seeing that MLB sees the old style of helmets not protective enough?

There are a lot of issues here. This would depend primarily on the type of helmet he was using. Do you still have the helmet?
