No baseball was played at Dodger Stadium on Sunday due to Hurricane Hilary … but a swimming meet coulda broken out — ’cause the epic storm nearly flooded the historic venue.
As the squall made landfall in Southern California, it pelted Los Angeles with so much rain, it left L.A.’s ballpark covered in water.

Earthquake Hits Los Angeles in the Middle of Hurricane Hilary
Footage shot from up above the downtown stadium shows the parking lot surrounding the site was underneath feet of water … though, thankfully, it appeared the diamond and its surrounding seats survived the inclement weather.
Of course, the Dodgers moved their Sunday afternoon game against the Marlins to Saturday … so there were no issues with the team’s schedule — though it’s unclear if the effects of the weather will impact L.A.’s next slate of games at Dodger Stadium next week.
As for Hilary, it’s still bombarding the southwestern U.S. with rainfall … causing major flooding on roadways and severe damage to buildings elsewhere.

Fortunately, however, the storm is set to let up later Monday.
