“Kavan is a fighter,” said district spokesperson Laura Thomson. “He’s going to need that strength now, but he has it.”
The incident shook the Pirates organization to its core. Chairman Bob Nutting released an emotional statement calling the night “devastating.”
“It was one of the most difficult moments many of us have ever experienced,” he wrote. “Our fans are part of our family, and we’re keeping Kavan and his loved ones in our hearts.”
As Kavan continues to fight for his life, a community stands behind him—rooting, praying, and waiting for his recovery.
Because this story isn’t over yet.
And neither is Kavan.
