Mother Nature announced her presence during a lower league baseball game on Tuesday.

Norfolk’s tides faced the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp (Triple-A affiliates of the Baltimore and Miami Marlins Orioles, respectively) on Tuesday in the northeast of Florida when a storm spread through the baseball stadium.

A giant shrimp corridor was on third base without anyone at the bottom of the first, when Tides Roansy Contreras launcher was on the section against Graham Pauley.

Then, out of nowhere, a great thunder boom broke out in the midst of the delivery of Contreras.

The boom scared Contreras (and many others) to the point where Contreras stopped dry. However, the arbiter of the plate showed no mercy and called Contreras for a balk, bringing the corridor.

The race reduced the Jumbo shrimp deficit to 2-1, and would score a race in the second and third tickets to take a 3-2 advantage.

It is not the first time that a strong boom has caused a bit of interruption in the game, but the UMP was following the rules book, and the beginning and the stop was the medium for the call.

However, Norfolk dropped more thunder and scored three races both in the fourth and fifth to lead, 8-3. Finally, a 9-5 victory took home.

The victory of the Tides was quite annoying, since there were 34-49 by entering the contest, reflecting the lack of success of their major league club (the or are 40-50 after making the postseason in consecutive seasons). Jumbo shrimp now have 53-34, which shows promise for the Marlins.
