A Cubs fan tumbled into a basket at Wrigley Field on Monday night in a hunt for a home run ball … and the wild scene was all captured on video.
It happened in the second inning of Chicago’s tilt with the Kansas City Royals … after Jac Caglianone took a Ben Brown knucklecurve deep to left field.

The ball crash landed into a net at the top of the wall — giving the star rookie a home run … but in an effort to retrieve the keepsake, a man in a black tank top and Cubs headband fell head-first into the webbing.
Check out the footage from the game’s broadcast, the guy laid in the net for several seconds as he got his paws on the ball — before some of his pals pulled him up.
Doesn’t seem he got in any kind of trouble for the ill-advised quest … as he was seen high-fiving some fans afterward.
Unfortunately for the Chicago backer, while he did get a cool memento … the Cubbies took a big L, falling 12-4.
Net his night, you could say.
