The company says it is giving all the cards to McGuire.
The Blue Jays say in an emailed statement that medics attended to the fan immediately after the incident, noting that she chose to remain in her seat for the rest of the game.
The team says it has followed up with the fan, invited her to be a guest at an upcoming game and has offered her a ball signed by Bichette.
