On Wednesday, a scary incident took place in PNC Park during the second match of the series between Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago Cubs.
In the seventh inning, pirate veteran Andrew McCutchen hit a double double double to bring a 4-3 lead to his team. Shortly after the hit, the fan fell from the wall of Clemente 21 meters high in the right field, landing on the warning track.
The excavation players immediately pointed to a fallen fan, urgently seeking medical attention. Medical staff quickly arrived at the scene and a few minutes bowed to an unidentified man before transporting him from the field to the trolley.
