<!-- end inline 1 -->The club released a statement saying the fan received immediate attention from the staff and that he's being treated for injuries at the hospital.
"The Rangers and our fans are deeply concerned, and we are prayerful and hopeful for his well-being," the statement read.
The Rangers said they won't have any more updates Saturday night on the fan.
On July 7, Shannon Stone, a 39-year-old firefighter from Brownwood, Texas, died less than an hour after tumbling headfirst over a rail out of the seats in left field at the Ballpark. The Rangers have since announced fan safety initiatives that include raising the height of the front-row rails.
WTF is in the booze there? Sad, sad story. Again.
