During the Major League Baseball game in New York on Monday night, a cat wandered on the court at Yankee Stadium, smarter than the field staff trying to catch it. When the cunning cat avoided the officials and finally rushed through the gate, fans began to cheer for it.
That night, the hometown Yankees lost. However, the hometown cat is more than just a blow-it is a grand slam.
In the game between the Baltimore Orioles and the New York Yankees, the cat appeared on the court. The game continued, the cat hovered near the Orioles air-raid shelter, and then ran out of the field.

There, it turned from an outfielder and ran to the back wall, close to the pitcher’s bullpen. Then it took a little time to check the tall plexiglass partition, perhaps considering its escape.
“Now, when someone is loose on the court, we usually don’t show up,” a TV announcer joked when the camera focused on the cat, “but this time, we made an exception.”
When the cat jumped on the wall and started walking along the wall, the crowd cheered.
“Good jumping,” an announcer said of the cat’s jumping. “They are strong, huh?” the other replied. The announcer then commented sympathetically how scared the cat looked when he lowered his head while walking carefully backwards along the wall.
Four stadium staff then ran out to catch the cat. After they surrounded the cat, it ran away, and as the crowd cheered, the men continued to chase.
During the chase, the TV announcer said that in a previous game, a kitten ran on the field and bit a staff member who picked it up.

When the cat tried to jump over the transparent plastic barrier on the back wall of the stadium, five on-site managers tried to quarrel with the cat without success.
“What are they doing?” an announcer asked, and the cat crossed the legs of several men.
At this moment, the camera caught several Yankees players in the air-raid shelter, smiling, smiling, shaking his head in disbelief, and the cat ran towards the other part of the court. At least seven field workers approached because the cat was still crouching near the wall.
Then, the cat crossed the legs of one of the crew members again and rushed to the side door, where the eighth member let the cat into the stands.
