Scary Moment At Mlb Game: Fan Plunges From Stands During Pirates Match

When a fan fell from the stands at a Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Chicago Cubs game on Wednesday night, May 1, a moment of euphoria at PNC Park swiftly descended into tragedy, raising concerns among players, fans, and his hometown community.

In the bottom of the seventh inning, a fan named Kavan Markwood, 20, of McKeesport, Pennsylvania, fell about 21 feet into the right-field warning track. The event happened shortly after Pirates legend Andrew McCutchen’s go-ahead double.

Before losing his balance over a 36-inch railing in Section 142, witnesses told TribLive that Markwood had taken off his shirt and showered himself with beer in jubilation. Police, EMS, and team trainers were among the emergency services who arrived right away.
After being placed on a backboard for stabilization, Markwood was taken to Allegheny General Hospital, where his condition is still critical. According to authorities, the occurrence is being considered an accident.

Behind the famous 21-foot Clemente Wall, which honors Hall of Famer Roberto Clemente, the fall took place. Later, the Pirates organization pointed out that the railing in question goes beyond what is required by the construction code.

Markwood was a devoted athlete who graduated from South Allegheny High School in 2022. Prior to going to Wheeling University, where he played linebacker at Walsh University, he made five appearances in 2023 and was named to the Mountain East Conference Commissioner’s Honor Roll. He had recently left the program to pursue employment, but former Wheeling coach Zac Bruney told TMZ Sports that he was “a very good young man” who hoped to return.
