    This is why Byrd plaid basket ball instead of baseball

    It's funniest that it's Randy Johnson who does this. It could've been any of the millions of pitchers across the world at any level of baseball, but it was thrown by a human cannon with one of the hottest fast balls in the history of the game.

    That bird got to go right to first base... in heaven.

    The odds of this happening is probably way slimmer than winning the lottery.

    First time in history that a baseball player scored a birdie
  • @javi7602
    Plot Twist: The bird intercepted the pitch on purpose. He knew he would be immortalized in baseball history forever.

    That bird should be in the hall of fame.
  • Wonder if the catcher was thinking " Did he just throw the ball so fast that it burst?" lol Look at his body language! You can see the dude wasnt sure what just happened.
  • @Nihilianth
    Probably the most iconic MLB footage in history. I cant help watching the catcher's reaction. It scared the ever living hell out of him. 🤣

    Happy 22nd Annual Randy Johnson Bird Day to those who celebrate.

    Too bad this cut off the part where the bird charged the mound right after

    This is one of those “just your day” moments.

    Love the reaction from the crowd, they have no idea what sound to make.
  • @brandon0sh
    Randy Johnson would absolutely be the only pitcher to have a body count on the mound
