The Grounds Crew is getting down …
Posted by: Richie Rich in MLB Weirdness, Mariners, Padres, Yankees, YouTubeUsually when you see a video of a Major league grounds crew, it’s because they’re out on the field to put down or take off the tarp. Or in the case of Wrigley Field, they’re out there to collect garbage thrown down from the bleacherites.
Well, it looks like a few of these unheralded landscapers have been taking dance lessons for their regularly scheduled fifth inning cleanup appearances …
Let’s go to a Mariners game, where the Safeco Field grounds crew is paying some guys not to tamp down the infield dirt.
Yankee fans know where I’m going next … The House that Ruth Built – Yankee Stadium. I wonder if the Bambino would approve of this between innings? Wait for it …
We finish up at PetCo Park, where one grounds crew member is feeling the music a bit more than anyone else. At least in the first two examples they’re all dancing.
The crowd loves him, but why the heck does he have a rake? If he’s a real member of the grounds crew … I bet no one on the crew buys him a beer after the game.
Showoff. Get back to work.
