Ever wonder what might happen if a hundred mile an hour fastball hit a bird? Watch this.

That was a long time ago, but more recently a Durham Bulls pitcher tried to brush back a seagull, only to have the play called back because the seagull hadn't been substituted into the game properly.

You'd think a direct hit on a seagull would kill it, too, wouldn't you? Maybe the Bulls pitcher isn't quite ready for the Show.


How long before PETA starts raising hell over this?

I'll bump this once because the first link to Randy Johnson's pitch is amazing. The bird just disintegrates.
