Matt Holliday Undergoes Mothectomy

An odd thing happened in St. Louis last night. Matt Holliday was taken out of the game with 2 outs in the eight inning because a moth had flown into his ear and got lodged in. It was apparently trying to extricate itself from Holliday’s ear canal but couldn’t work itself free. After initially trying to lure the moth out of the ear with a bright light in a dark room, the Cardinals trainer ended up removing the still live moth with a pair of tweezers.

You can’t make this stuff up!
