Baseball: Flock of birds interrupts play in Eagles-Lions game

A large flock of birds flies by Seibu Lions second baseman Hideto Asamura during a baseball game against the Rakuten Eagles at Kobo Park Miyagi in Sendai on Aug. 30, 2017. The birds did not leave the stadium until its operators turned all the lights off, prolonging a rain delay and leading the game to end after eight innings on account of rain. (Kyodo) ==Kyodo
