An innovative streaker made the most of his moment in the spotlight on Wednesday night during a rain delay at Nationals Park.

After rain forced play to stop in the fourth inning of a game between the Nationals and Reds, the grounds crew rolled out the tarp to cover the infield.

During the delay, a fan, completely unclothed, ran in from the outfield, stormed the tarp, and enjoyed it as a slip-n-slide to the delight of those who were waiting out the storm.

As security ran out to retrieve him, the streaker showed a bit of tact, sliding towards the roller that had been used to unfurl the tarp and hiding inside the tube, slightly delaying his apprehension.

While the man was eventually caught, his innovation led to some absolutely inspired photography.

For the fans in attendance during the rain delay, the streaker's run across the turf would prove to be the most entertaining moment of the rest of the night, as the game was eventually suspended due to inclement weather to be completed Thursday afternoon.
