CPR From Post-Dispatch Journalist Saves Man In Cubs’ Dugout
ST. LOUIS (AP) — A videographer who collapsed from a heart attack in the visiting dugout at Busch Stadium is alive, thanks in part to a St. Louis Post-Dispatch journalist.
The videographer, 64-year-old Mike Flanary, was in the Chicago Cubs' dugout Sunday before the game the Cardinals eventually won 9-0 to clinch the National League Central title.
Flanary collapsed and was briefly without a pulse. The Post-Dispatch reports that baseball writer Derrick Goold had CPR training as a youth and rushed to help. The Cubs' training staff and EMTs performed further medical procedures before Flanary was taken to a hospital.
Flanary was in critical but stable condition. He had suffered a heart attack and a stroke.
The stadium doctor on duty, David Tan, says Goold's CPR "probably saved" Flanary's life.
