A scary moment occurred at Wednesday’s Chicago White Sox<\/a> game against the Kansas City Royals after a fan was hospitalized following a fall into the visiting bullpen.<\/p>\n

Kansas City<\/a> had runners on first and second with none out in the fourth inning when the game was briefly delayed while workers attended to the fallen fan. It appeared stadium workers used a stretcher to transport the fan out of the bullpen area beyond the wall.<\/p>\n

The White Sox released a statement saying the fan appeared to be headed in the right direction from a recovery standpoint.<\/p>\n

“We reached out to the fan to check on his well-being, and his friend was able share a positive report<\/span>,” the team said before Thursday’s series finale against the Royals. “The entire White Sox organization and clubhouse are wishing him a speedy recovery.”<\/p>\n

Wide-angle video from MLB.com Research shows the fan fell over a roughly 3-foot-high barrier from the front row of Section 105 in the South Side ballpark’s right-field seats and into the bullpen.<\/p>\n

The video shows the fan rising to his feet as Chicago second baseman\u00a0Chase Meidroth\u00a0hits a run-scoring sacrifice fly to Royals center fielder\u00a0Lane Thomas\u00a0for the first out in the bottom of the third inning.<\/p>\n

The fan continued over the barrier, fell in front of a red ad for a local butcher shop and landed in an area covered by grass and dirt at the west end of the bullpen.<\/p>\n

The bullpen is located behind the stadium’s right-field wall and in front of Sections 104 and 105.<\/p>\n

The base of the barrier is concrete, rising about 10 to 12 inches, topped by a metal fence that is roughly 2 feet high. The front row of seats is about 3 feet behind the fence.<\/p>\n

The Royals relievers moved into a far corner of the bullpen after the fan fell.<\/p>\n

A similar incident occurred last year at a Pittsburgh Pirates game when a fan fell over the wall<\/a> and nearly 20 feet onto the outfield warning track.<\/p>\n

Kavan Markwood was rushed to Allegheny General Hospital\u2019s trauma unit after the accident, where he was in critical condition. Players were visibly shaken, as were many in the stands, as medical staff from both teams and EMS placed him on a stretcher and carted him off the field.\u00a0<\/p>\n
