A suspicious package blown up outside a major baseball stadium turned out to be hot dogs for the fans.

Several suspicious packages were reportede to police near the ticket office at Citizens Bank Park, baseball stadium in Philadelphia.

Spectators had to be evacuated from the stadiumm but players remained on the field during the incident. The incident happened before the main game betweeen the Philadelphia Phillies and the Atlanta Braves.

Streets around the ground were also sealed off.

Bomb squad members were called in and on further investigated the packages were determined to be simply several hot dogs in foil wrappers. The wieners were detonated as a precaution.

“It was clear from when we looked at it at first glance and when you looked at the debris afterwards, there was packaging and duct tape; I don’t see many hot dogs sold here with duct tape,” Phillies VP of Operations Michael Stiles said. “We just did what we felt was appropriate.”
