Baseball never provided a method of calculating its alleged damages.
Baseball claims that it has been damaged in an amount believed to exceed millions of dollars.
There is no factual basis to support any claim for monetary damages arising from the perceived injuries and that such claims are the product of speculation and guesswork. There is no doubt that Baseball has been damaged, but Baseball has not quantified those damages with any certainty. Therefore, when the plaintiff fails to prove damages with certainty, it is limited to only the recovery of nominal damages. Plaintiff seeking compensatory damages has the burden of proof and should present to the court a proper basis for ascertaining the damages. They must be susceptible of ascertainment in some manner other than by mere conjecture or guesswork.
