During a live ESPN broadcast of the historic baseball game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Cuban national team, which took place on March 22, a reporter was interrupted by a political protester.

In the video posted by reporter Yusnaby Pérez, anchor Bob Ley can be seen on camera. The anchor is suddenly interrupted by loud shouting, and another, mysterious man comes on camera.

“We have a moment here with a political demonstration on our set,” Ley can be heard saying as he makes his way off camera.

Th unidentified man yells and throws papers in the air before being pulled off camera. He can then be seen being led away by police officers along with other protesters.

President Barack Obama and Cuban President Raul Castro were both present to witness the first baseball game between the two nations since 1999. The Tampa Bay Rays played against Cuba's national team with Tampa winning 4-1.

"There is something about baseball that is so fundamentally woven into our culture," Obama told ESPN. "At a time in our lives where everything is a mile a minute, there is nothing like going to a ballpark and everything slowing down a bit."
