A baseball fan fell from the 21-foot (6.4-metre) Clemente Wall in right field at PNC Park during Wednesday night’s game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago Cubs.
Right after Pittsburgh batter Andrew McCutchen hit a two-run double in the seventh inning to put the Pirates ahead 4-3, players began waving frantically for medical personnel and pointing to the man, who had fallen onto the warning track.
The man was tended to for approximately five minutes before being removed from the field.
Numerous players were seen saying prayers or taking a knee. Pittsburgh Public Safety posted on X that the man was in critical condition and that police were investigating.
