BURGESS, Justice,
concurring.
I concur in the result. The majority, in dicta, seems to espouse some public policy doctrine in their “refusal to extend liability to the Amelia Little League organization.” I do not believe this is necessary or sound. Premises owners can indeed be liable for the intentional acts of third parties in certain circumstances. See Travis v. City of Mesquite, 830 S.W.2d 94, 98 (Tex.1992); El Chico Corp. v. Poole, 732 S.W.2d 306, 314 (Tex.1987); Nixon v. Mr. Property Mgmt. Co., 690 S.W.2d 546, 550 (Tex.1985); S & A Beverage Co. of Beaumont, No. 2 v. DeRouen, 753 S.W.2d 507, 511 (Tex.App.— Beaumont 1988, writ denied); Restatement (Second) op Torts § 448 (1965).
