Royals Crew Member Gets Swallowed By Tarp During Rain Delay

Rain delays are a common part of baseball games. And quite often, the grounds crew is able to cover the field with a tarp without incident. Then other times, you get fantastic displays like the one in Kansas City.

With the Astros beating the Royals 3-1 in the top of the third inning, Mother Nature started getting angry, and rain began pouring down. The game was delayed while the crew began doing their thang. Unfortunately, one unlucky crew member slipped and fell. The tarp did not care and just kept rolling.



Fortunately, Tarp Guy, as he is now and probably will forever be known by, escaped uninjured. Those tarps are dangerous!
