(Pittsburgh, PA) The Pittsburgh Pirates fan who fell from the stands onto PNC Park last Wednesday during the game the Pirates played against the Chicago Cubs is making substantial progress for recovery. According to Allegheny General Hospital Chief Al Philp, the man had injuries to his lungs, spine, brain and both sides of his ribs. Philp also commented that pain will still come from his injuries. However, the man is walking, talking and performing tasks that are simple again.
