Overview
- A fighter jet participating in Chicago Air & Water Show rehearsals flew low over Wrigley Field during the seventh-inning stretch.
- Hayden Christensen and his daughter were leading “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” when the roar of the jet momentarily drowned out their singing, though Christensen laughed and finished the song.
- Several Cubs players in the dugout reacted by bracing themselves and covering their heads, with infielder Justin Turner and a staff member briefly ducking to the ground.
- Clips of the unexpected flyover, broadcast on Marquee Sports Network and reshared across social media, quickly went viral without reports of injuries or official safety concerns.
- The Pittsburgh Pirates secured a 3-2 victory as Jack Suwinski’s ninth-inning home run broke a 2-2 tie.
