NEW YORK (AP) -

A segment of fans in Yankee Stadium's right field bleachers chanted "U-S-A! U-S-A!" during the playing of "O Canada" on Friday night before the game between New York and the Toronto Blue Jays.

Most of the 45,000-plus fans in the ballpark ignored the chanting during the anthem sung by Max Greenberg, a rising junior at Dwight School in Manhattan.

The start of the game was delayed 86 minutes because of rain.
