Rangers' fan injured in fall thankful to be alive
Baseball Betting Lines
07/08/2010 - FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -Texas Rangers fan Tyler Morris says he's thankful to be alive after tumbling about 30 feet from second-deck stands while trying to catch a foul ball. The 25-year-old tells The Associated Press his face is swollen and his foot is in a brace after he suffered a fractured skull and sprained ankle at Tuesday night's game. He spoke Thursday by phone while a friend drove him home from the hospital. Morris says he remembers reaching for the foul ball that landed about four rows back and bounced toward him. But he says he misjudged how close he was to the railing and fell to the ground-level seats, landing on four people who suffered minor injuries. He says he's sorry those people were hurt, but believes they may be the reason he's alive.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
