Pablo Lopez pours beer on Bally Sports North's Audra Martin during Twins celebrations
The champagne and beer was flowing in the Minnesota Twins locker room after they clinched the AL Central on Friday night – and Bally Sports North's Audra Martin was caught by some friendly fire.
Conducting an interview with pitcher Bailey Ober, an extremely boisterous Pablo Lopez interrupted by dumping two bottles of Budweiser on Martin's head.
Here's the moment and Martin – unsurprisingly – was somewhat taken aback by the incursion, but continued undaunted with her interview.

"Now you're a part of it," Ober said.
Martin was called into action for more interviews a few moments later, and it looks like she had found a towel in the interim.
Judging by videos of the locker room, it was nigh-on impossible to work in that locker room without getting a soaking, with photographers seen working with plastic bags around their prized cameras.
