Kaiser Carlile, the 9-year-old bat boy for the Liberal Bee Jays who was struck in the head with a follow-through swing near the on-deck circle during Saturday’s game, died on Sunday, Liberal general manager Mike Carlile said.

Carlile confirmed the death after Liberal’s 8-0 victory in the National Baseball Congress World Series late Sunday evening. Kaiser’s family had arrived in Wichita and was in attendance for Liberal’s game Sunday. Players were aware of Kaiser’s death before the game, according to manager Adam Anderson. The Bee Jays went on to win the run-rule, seven-inning game over the Haysville Aviators.
