Chase Field needed a hero Tuesday night.
An NL West clash between the Arizona Diamondbacks and Los Angeles Dodgers was put on hold just before 7 p.m. PT due to a bee colony forming on the protective netting behind home plate.
After a lengthy delay, Diamondbacks team officials called a local professional beekeeper to properly take care of the colony. Once the beekeeper arrived, they were elevated on a lift to meet the colony, which was located at the very top of the back screen.
The beekeeper used what appeared to be a vacuum to safely transport the bees to their next location—likely far away from Chase Field.
