Baseball Hits an Eclipse



One of the best places to view the 2017 Total Solar Eclipse was at a ballpark in Keizer, Oregon. Here, NASA Goddard and the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter mission partnered with the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes Minor League Baseball team for an "EclipseFest" that featured the first ever "Eclipse Delay" in baseball history. This video shows what took place at the event.
