   Meanwhile the girl's parents announced a lawsuit against the   
   Louisville Slugger Co.   
      
   "It's atrocious how this company CONTINUES to make baseball bats which   
   are used to kill people," said Ms. Viloria-Paulino. "Hundreds die   
   every year, and there are more regulations on an Easy-Bake Oven® than   
   there are on baseball bats. They must be held accountable."
