Orioles, Tigers and Squirrel? Game Interrupted by Wild Squirrel

- While Orioles third base coach Buck Britton shared sunflower seeds with the animal, Orioles outfielder Leody Taveras noted the animal's "speed, ability to swiftly change direction" made it tough to round up.
- Home plate umpire Bill Miller requested applause for the grounds crew after removal; the Detroit Tigers fell 8-5, marking their third consecutive loss.
