The New York Mets and Atlanta Braves should be renewing their rivalry at Turner Field right about now, but instead Mother Nature is getting in the way.

In a big way.

New York Mets catcher Kevin Plawecki recorded footage of flooding in the tunnel between the visitors’ clubhouse and visitors’ dugout on Thursday evening, with the humorous caption “What are we waiting for? Let’s play ball.” The New York Mets’ official Twitter account advised Plawecki to “grab 2 of everything in the clubhouse. The ark will be there shortly.”

It isn’t clear if Mets ace Noah Syndergaard has been tasked with constructing said ark.

The game is in a rain delay as of 7:45 p.m. Thursday.
