Texas Rangers Fan Falls From Second Deck During Game While Reaching For Foul Ball

A Texas Rangers fan has been seriously hurt after he fell from the second deck at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington while leaning for a foul ball during a game against the Cleveland Indians.
The unidentified man lost his balance as he was attempting to catch a Nelson Cruz foul ball. He fell about 30 feet from the second deck to the field level seats below. Four other fans were also injured.

Several players on the field, along with the umpire, were shook up as they saw what had happened. Play was then suspended for 16 minutes and the field was cleared while paramedics helped the injured fan.

The man was taken to John Peter Smith in Fort Worth where he is stable and responsive and able to move his arms and legs.

At first thought this sounded funny. After seeing the reactions by the umpire and the players, I now feel horrible for the fan, coming from a fellow baseball fan. The good news is that he is stable and responsive and should recover. I hope he somehow gets the foul ball he was reaching for and maybe a few tickets to a future Rangers game.
