Prayers up for a Pittsburgh Pirates fan.
At PNC Park on Wednesday night, the Pirates were taking on the Chicago Cubs.
While the home team was at bat and scoring runs, footage would surface of a fan in the outfield seemingly jumping over the wall or losing his balance and falling to the field below.
He appeared to be knocked out cold, and no players realized what had happened, as they were all paying attention to the action.
The person fell from the right-field bleachers above the Clemente Wall and landed on the warning track. The incident occurred as the Pirates re-took the lead over the Cubs on a ground ball to shortstop.
According to CBS, crews responded immediately to the field to tend to the Pittsburgh Pirates fan.
The unidentified man was motionless on the ground.
They were placed on a backboard and carted off the field by crews.
“Right now, a fan in right-center field has been put on a stretcher,” play-by-play announcer Alex Cohen said amid the delay.
CBS reported that the game was delayed for about 10 minutes before play resumed in the bottom of the seventh inning.
Numerous players were seen on the broadcast saying prayers or taking a knee.
The condition of the person was not immediately known on Wednesday.
