"A squirrel ran into the 22-year-old outfielder's foot at home plate between pitches in the third inning at Yankee Stadium during his MLB debut. Watch the wild moment: The loose squirrel scurried away when Garcia made his way back to the batter's box. Then, the small rodent ran toward the pitcher's mound and visited Yankees starting pitcher Max Fried. It nibbled on the mound's dirt before sprinting through the infield."
"An on-field delay ensued as the squirrel frantically made its way toward the warning track. Play resumed when the squirrel began attempting to find its way off the field by looking for an opening in the walls. NESN's cameras caught the squirrel snacking on a peanut while sitting on the dirt between attempts to exit. It tried climbing up the wall into the stands, but to no avail."
Red Sox rookie Jhostynxon Garcia experienced a squirrel running into his foot between pitches during the third inning of his MLB debut at Yankee Stadium. The loose rodent scurried away when Garcia returned to the batter's box, then ran to the pitcher's mound, nibbled on the dirt and sprinted through the infield, prompting an on-field delay as it sought an opening in the walls to exit. NESN captured the squirrel snacking on a peanut and attempting to climb into the stands. Garcia later drew a walk to reach base for the first time in the big leagues. His younger brother Johanfran attended the game.
