Yankees fans startled by squirrel in the outfield
A squirrel made its way into the Yankees vs Orioles game on Tuesday and the look of shock on the Yankees fans faces as it scampers by them is priceless.
A ferocious beast, a terrifying creature, stunned New York Yankees fans as it made its way into the outfield during the Baltimore Orioles game on Tuesday. Okay, it was just a squirrel. But by the look on the Yanks fans’ faces, you’d think they just encountered a hungry grizzly bear.
This video is made even better by the fact that it’s in slow motion, so we can see the look of shock on the face of - not one, not two, but three - Yankees fans as the squirrel scampers past them. The announcers also help the comedic effect with their commentary.
“Look at the faces of the fans!”
“You’re scared of a squirrel?”
“This guy’s not,” one of them says as it passes a fan who looks on with an amused smile.
The squirrel then jumps off the ledge and onto the baseball field as the announcer says, “now it’s become a flying squirrel!”
Happy to report, the squirrel indeed stuck the landing and seems to have gotten away scar-free. As for the fans, though, they may be left mentally scarred from the trauma of encountering the scary squirrel.
