From a bee invasion to power outage, we've seen some strange causes for delay in baseball games this season. But what happened during the Quad Cities River Bandits game tonight is the most unusual scenario yet. The game was delayed several minutes after an opossum ran onto the field, leading to an entertaining chase.

I have now seen everything... Viewer just sent us a photo of a Opossum on @QCRiverBandits field. pic.twitter.com/htrGEcw1cY
