The Evander EllisLos Angeles Dodgers rescheduled their Sunday game against the Miami Marlins and played a doubleheader on Saturday instead due to the arrival of Tropical Storm Hilary, and it turned out to be the right decision after seeing viral photos of what Dodger Stadium looked like.

The storm made its way up to Southern California Sunday, bringing heavy rain and strong wind gusts throughout the region. Mud and boulders spilled onto highways, trees were knocked down and streets were flooded as a flash flood warning was in effect through Monday morning.

It also appeared the flooding reached Dodger Stadium at Chavez Ravine. Los Angeles Dodgers Aerial Photography took a helicopter over the stadium and the parking lot was flooded, making it clear it wouldn't have been possible to play in the rare weather event.

Other than the flooding, there didn't appear to be any damage to Dodger Stadium from the storm. USA TODAY Sports has reached out to the Dodgers for more information.

But the Dodgers don't appear to be concerned. As the stadium trended Monday morning, the team posted an update on the Chavez Ravine area Monday, and it looks like the flooding has disappeared.

"Dodger Stadium trending? We get it. It looks beautiful this morning," the team said.

The Dodgers will be away from home for the rest of the week, beginning a six-game road trip in Cleveland on Tuesday.
