A baseball fan died Thursday after suffering a cardiac arrest in the Chicago White Sox vs Blue Jays game at the Rogers Centre in Toronto.

The fan reportedly went into cardiac arrest in the seventh inning. Several players witnessed the incident and they were the ones who made a request for play to stop, according to the Jays' website.

"First of all, our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of the person who was taken out of the ballgame here tonight," Blue Jays manager John Farrell said at a news conference after the game. "That was clearly a serious situation." See the video here.

The man was pronounced dead at the hospital, according to the Associated Press citing Toronto Police Services.

The players showed their condolences for the man.

"You automatically start thinking of life, you put everything in perspective. At the beginning of that inning, I'm fired up to get guys out and not that let that guy score and you see something like that, it puts everything in perspective. It didn't look good," White Sox reliever Jesse Crain said.
