Crazy! It looks like they jumped!
Jumped up in excitement when Cubs booted the ball. Looks like maybe his foot got tangled and he went overboard.
Damn hope that guy pulls through. So hard to watch a human body fall like that. My already high anxiety with heights and the possibility of somebody falling is going to be so much worse. Next time we go to a game my kids better be ready to army crawl if they want to get close to the railing.
I was there. Incredibly surreal feeling. Ballgame seemed to not matter after that. Very weird feeling even going into today.
Trying to find the article online but Sean was reading something shared on Twitter this morning that was from a first hand account of someone 5 rows behind where the guy fell over. Apparently he was drunk and got excited on that play and lost his balance and flipped over the railing.
Yeah, drunk was my first assumption. It's not just that he fell, it was as if someone dumped a dummy over the wall. No attempts to grab the wall or turn his body.
Can you imagine Wrigley if the Cubs had Paul Skenes on a weekday at 76 degrees? In Pittsburgh, maybe 13,000 scattered around the park. 
Getting some guys on against Skenes but can't get the clutch hit. At least getting his pitch count up a bit so hopefully goes just 6 innings tops.
