A California Little Leaguer and his parents are being sued by his own coach for allegedly injuring the man when the boy threw his batting helmet after his team scored the winning run in a game. The suit seeks $500,000 for pain and suffering, plus thousands more for lost wages and medical costs. The coach accuses the 14-year-old of having "carelessly" thrown his helmet, "striking Plaintiff's Achilles tendon and tearing it" during a Lakeside Little League game last spring.
