(CBS/AP) There was quite a buzz at the Colorado Rockies-Arizona Diamondbacks game Thursday night, when a swarm of bees temporarily halted the game.

The bees invaded the stadium and took over a camera bay next to the Rockies' dugout in the fifth inning.

The swarm remained stuck to a railing until a beekeeper arrived an inning later to vacuum up the bees and relocate them.

The Diamondbacks won the game, 9-7.
