Atlanta: A man died on Saturday after falling from an upper deck at the Atlanta Braves’ ballpark. The fall occurred in the top of the seventh inning of the New York Yankees’ 3-1 win over the Braves as Yankees slugger Alex Rodriguez was walking to home plate to bat amid boos from Braves fans.

Spectator Greg Shiver, who attended the game with his son, told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that he had just told his son to watch for Rodriguez when he heard “a big thud”. “I saw a guy falling from the top. I grabbed my son and ran for security,” said Shiver, adding that the man who fell was “bleeding pretty badly.”
