Very scary stuff from Rangers Ballpark in Arlington Tuesday night as a fan fell from the second deck to the seats below reaching for a foul ball. Fortunately, the man is said to be in stable condition and these types of occurrences are surprisingly rare. The game between the Rangers and Indians was stopped for 16 minutes when the incident occurred and fans, players, and the umpiring crew were visibly rattled. Here’s a video of the incident, which shows the reactions when it happened and not the actual fall (so don’t worry too much if you’re squeamish or don’t want to see it happen). It’ll certainly give you an idea of how shaken up everyone was by it:
Fingers crossed that everything turns out OK for the fan.
