Per a statement by the Pirates, the fan responded to PNC Park personnel. They were transferred to a local hospital.

“Tonight, during the seventh inning of the game at PNC Park, an adult male fell from the right field bleachers
onto the field of play,” the statement reads. “Pittsburgh EMS, as well as the Pirates and Cubs athletic training teams and other PNC Park personnel reacted and responded immediately and administered care.

“He was transported to Allegheny General Hospital. No further information is available at this time. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.”

“My Prayers are for his family and the person injured,” commented a fan.

“Video of a fan jumping onto the field and landing awkwardly at the Cubs v. Pirates game. Hoping for the best,” posted another.

“Prayers up for this fan at the Cubs-Pirates game brutal fall,” posted a viewer.
