The Angels Game Was Delayed By Bees
First pitch of the Orioles-Angels game last night was briefly delayed when a swarm of bees descended on a camera behind home plate. This screengrab, from Fox Sports West's Jose Mota, is just messing with perspective—they're not actually 15-foot bees. We think. We pray. Has anyone heard from anybody ...

The Lakers lost, 102-91, to fall down 0-2 in their matchup with San Antonio.
