Pirates-Cubs game delayed by squirrel’s outfield invasion

Issues obtained somewhat nutty at PNC Park on Monday evening.

The sport between the Chicago Cubs and host Pittsburgh Pirates was delayed within the backside of the second inning when a squirrel made its manner onto the sphere. 

The critter reportedly entered the sphere from the stands on the third-base facet. Members of the grounds crew, geared up with nets, chased the squirrel throughout the warning monitor in a scene that deserved to be set to “Yakety Sax.” 

Finally, the rodent exited the taking part in discipline through the bullpen gate, ending the minutes-long delay.

No phrase on if he picked up some peanuts and Cracker Jacks earlier than leaving.
