In the competition for most unusual reason for a delay, today’s game between Houston and San Diego stakes a bold claim for first place. In the top of the 9th, a swarm of bees invades part of the left field area of Petco Park, forcing an emergency call to a beekeeper and evacuation of part of the stands. After a 52-minute delay, the game resumes and the Astros prevail, 7 – 2.
