Squirrel on field briefly delays Red Sox-Yanks game
A squirrel briefly delayed a baseball game between the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees on Friday night. The small animal ran onto the field, causing the game to be paused for a short period while officials attempted to remove it. The incident occurred during the bottom of the fifth inning at Yankee Stadium in New York. No players or umpires were affected by the squirrel's presence, and the game resumed shortly after the animal was safely ushered off the field. The unexpected wildlife appearance provided a lighthearted moment in the intense rivalry between the two iconic American baseball teams. While unusual, such animal-related delays are not entirely uncommon in the sport, as wildlife occasionally finds its way onto the playing field during live games.
