The Toronto Blue and Tampa Bay Rays returned to the field after a 30-minute delay caused by a power outage at Tropicana Field.
Both teams left the field during the third inning after severe weather in Tampa Bay knocked out a set of lights above third base.
Tonight's power outage was caused by a lightning strike at the 16th Street substation.
