When there’s a storm approaching, you can usually count on a baseball stadium’s grounds crew to keep the infield dry.

That is unless the wind isn’t cooperating — at all.

The Joliet Slammers grounds crew couldn’t seem to keep the tarp on the field Tuesday when heavy winds hit the Illinois stadium.
