Baseball fans watching a fireworks show after Saturday night’s game at Angel Stadium were treated to a little more than the planned display after a palm tree caught on fire, authorities said.
Anaheim Fire & Rescue responded to the north end of the Angel Stadium property at around 9 p.m. Saturday for a call about a palm tree on fire. The Angels played the A’s in Anaheim on Saturday evening.
Firefighters arrived and extinguished the fire, which did not extend to any other trees or structures.

Angel Stadium security officials could not immediately be reached for comment.
