Video from fans shows the singer, Alexandra Castle, trying to stretch out the end of the Star-Spangled Banner so the pilots could reach the stadium.
The flyover was about 20 seconds late.
According to The Athletic, it marked the second straight year the Angels have had a flyover issue on Opening Day.
The team would go on to lose to Seattle, 3-1, in extra innings.
