A fire at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles forced fans to evacuate from a section of the upper deck down the first-base line Saturday while the team was hosting a game against the Florida Marlins.

Fans were relocated by stadium staff as smoke wafted over the playing field during the fifth inning.

The game continued without delay.

A public-address announcement was made during the sixth inning informing fans of the fire, saying it was "small" in a "contained area" and "under control" by the Los Angeles Fire Department.

The fire started in a food vendor warehouse, according to MLB.com.
