What do you do when the baseball field is flooded? You swim in it, of course

When the teams arrived at Swayze Field on Friday for the Oxford Regional of the College World Series, they weren't expecting a swim to be on their list of activities -- but that's exactly what they did.
The NCAA Oxford Regional is being held in Oxford, Miss., at Swayze Field, which was taken over by water following a nasty storm. But that's OK because it appeared there was one individual who took advantage of the opportunity to take a dip:

As you can see, there was enough water on the field to engage in a full-on swim -- if only you could earn runs based on your breaststroke skills.
Both of the games that were scheduled for Friday have been postponed to Saturday. No. 2 Tennessee Tech will take on No. 3 Missouri State at 1 pm ET. Following that, No. 1 Ole Miss vs. No. 4 Saint Louis will be played at 7 pm ET.
Stay dry my friends.
