VIDEO: Sandoval's belt gives up on him during at-bat

Nothing seems to be going right for Boston Red Sox third baseman Pablo Sandoval.
First he lost his job to Travis Shaw out of spring training, and on Saturday, he almost lost his pants, too.
During his first at-bat of the game against R.A. Dickey of the Toronto Blue Jays, the Venezuelan infielder known as "Big Panda" had a wardrobe malfunction when his belt did not cooperate with him.
At first, it looked as if Sandoval's belt broke, but after closer inspection, it came undone as he swung for the fences.
Sandoval would later strikeout in his at-bat, but at least his pants stayed on, unlike Steve Lyons' in 1990:
