Major League Baseball is nearing new recommendations for safety netting at all stadiums for the 2016 season.

Rob Manfred said Thursday that it's "absolutely clear" there will be changes.

The commissioner said there was more work to be done and that he wasn't prepared to go into details. "In addition to a recommendation on the physical location of nets, there will be a broad fan education component to the program," Manfred said.

There were several instances of fans injured by foul balls at MLB games this year.
