A squirrel haunts the Phillies during a Cardinals game yet again

This is NUTS.

Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports

The Phillies accidentally hosted a special guest at Citizen's Bank Park on Friday night: a squirrel! The little guy may have been cute from afar when he was climbing on the net but he gave the guys a good scare once he fell off the rope and invaded Philadelphia's dugout.

The weirdest part about all of this is the Phillies are playing the Cardinals. These two teams share a history with a squirrel; one that Philly fans are not so fond to remember. For more context on Squirrelgate, check out The Good Phight.
