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!

Man Catches Foul Beer in His Beer, Attempts to Chug Said Beer, Fails

The Seattle Mariners don't really have much to get excited about this season, as they're projected by nearly every expert to finish second-to-last in the AL West. The only team that's supposed to finish behind them? The Houston Astros, who just beat Seattle twice in a row.

The second game did have a highlight for the home team, though. This fan catches a foul ball in his beer, then proceeds to chug the beer. Never mind that most of his drink ends up on him rather than in his mouth; the enthusiasm his buddy shows makes up for it. And it probably tasted leathery. Good stuff.
