I was at Sunday's come back win against the Padres. You should have heard the cheer from the crowd when the squirrel darted out along the first baseline. (Between innings - smart squirrel. Unlike the idiot fan who leaned out to grab a ball that was still in fair play before Matsui could get to it.)

Unlike the idiot fan who leaned out to grab a ball that was still in fair play before Matsui could get to it.) Nice to see a Yankee fan here! I once saw what looked like small rodents (not squirrels) on the field before the game. As I was looking from the tier boxes at that time sans binoculars, I wasn't sure what they were. Rats?? Sparrows? Nearby parks, Joyce Kilmer and Franz Sigel (in front of and behind the courthouse), plus big Macombs Dam Park, are loaded with squirrels. Former Yankee and Hall of Famer Dave Winfield once killed a seagull with a thrown ball in Toronto and got arrested. Something similar happened to some sadist pitcher from Korea in the Minors who killed a kestrel with a maliciously thrown ball. It was quite a stink that. Of course in Korea they even eat puppies and kittens. My next Yankee game - July 5th. I'll be the intense-looking guy with mirrored sunglasses and a Yankee cap in the tier seats.
