What’s Brewing With Jen Includes Loads Of Bees

See what was brewing with Jen Scordo today. Every day on The Best Show Ever? Jen Scordo shares a few recent weird and interesting news stories. Today that includes bees, bees, and more bees… Here are her stories from today. A Swarm Of Bees Delays Dodgers Game The Dodgers and Diamondbacks game in Phoenix yesterday was delayed by two hours after a colony of bees swarmed to the top of the hitting net behind home plate.  People started to notice the bees about five minutes before the first pitch.  Blue Sky Pest Control was called in for emergency removal and “The Bee Guy” was hailed a hero.  The Diamondbacks even put it up on the jumbotron “Thanks Bee Guy!” Bee swarms are common evidently in Arizona in the spring.  Many spring training games have been delayed due to bee swarms.  Thankfully the bees were removed thanks to “The Bee Guy” and the game was able to proceed and then they let him throw out the ceremonial first pitch.  His name is Matt Hilton. The Diamondback beat the Dodger 4-3.
