CHICAGO (AP) -- The Chicago Cubs says a female fan hit by a line drive foul ball during Sunday's game was conscious and taken to a hospital.
The woman was carried off on a stretcher at Wrigley Field. She was struck by a foul from Cubs rookie Kyle Schwarber in the first inning. She was sitting just past the camera well on the first base side.
The game between the Cubs and Atlanta Braves was briefly stopped as fans and ushers waved for medics. Cubs first base coach Brandon Hyde put his hands on his helmet after he saw the fan get hit.
