After barely getting back on the field after an extended rain delay, the Chicago White Sox and Kansas City Royals were forced to halt action yet again when a torrential downpour pelted the field at Guaranteed Rate Field.
Not everyone was annoyed by the stoppage. White Sox second baseman Yolmer Sanchez made the best of a bad situation by channeling his inner child to play in the rain.

Sanchez isn't the first White Sox player to embrace his silly side amid inclement weather. Longtime Chicago pitcher Mark Buehrle made a habit of treating the tarp covering the field like his personal Slip'N Slide.
