Sprinkler snafu causes delay in Reds-Indians game

MLB.com

It's spring training for the grounds crew at Goodyear Ballpark, too, folks, but they're already in midseason form.

During the eighth inning of Saturday's Cactus League game between the Cincinnati Reds and Cleveland Indians, the crew got its first test of the season when the stadium sprinklers unexpectedly went off, sending players and umpires scrambling, but one intrepid groundskeeper got to the shut-off valve in a matter of seconds, bringing a swift end to the chaos.

Well done, ladies and gentlemen.
