CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The patrons at Progressive Field sat in the stands and watched the action -- or lack thereof -- unfold on the diamond on Saturday afternoon.
And then, a squirrel appeared.
Oh, the excitement.
The lonely rodent sprinted toward the infield dirt from the right-field grass. He (or she) darted across the infield and snuck behind the home-plate area.
Grounds crew members chased him toward the left-field wall, which featured an open door the led to the bowels of the ballpark. Instead, the rogue rodent hopped the fence in foul territory and escaped through the crowd.
