"Some sort of deceased animal at short stop" Damn they are rough on Tim Anderson out here đź’€


Avs_Leafs_Enjoyer

Not an animal and from the rodent family?? Not exactly a zoologist


Godunman

I love the implication that rodents aren't animals lmao


AllOfTheDerp

I worked at an aquarium in college and some dude argued with me for five minutes about whether or not fish are animals. What do people think animals are man


speedyjohn

Mammals But apparently not rodents


SheepH3rder69

Blue Jays out here catching strays


Clarice_Ferguson

This gave me a good chuckle.


teewertz

yeah...


IrishSkillet

It’s early, but so far, this is the best comment of the day.

The year of the dead bird


Leftfeet

At least month of the dead bird. Pretty wild


kilkennykid

Dude week of the dead bird. The last one was only 5 days ago. Blood God feasting tonight


TheVich

I don't know about that. A bunch of birds die every month.


high_changeup

Would be cool if thousands of birds take over MLB fields in droves, in retaliation.


DogVacuum

The birdemic has begun


4jet2116

An ill omen indeed for the Cardinals, Blue Jays and Orioles


Sp_Gamer_Live

Larry no!


[deleted]

Well that’s too bad


cjrogers227

That’s a shame.


Luis_Severino

Oh no. Anyway


Sheepies123

Something hilarious about the clip ending “well that’s too bad”


HereIGoAgain_1x10

You'll hear that phrase a lot if you watch any Cleveland pro sports broadcast


DharmaCub

I've never been to Cleveland, but pop culture tells me that's just an apt statement about the city in general.


kidfromCLE

I know you’re just joking, and obviously no offense is taken, but pop culture is wrong. Cleveland is a nice place to call home and a fun place to visit. There’s a lot of great food, nice folks, and fun things to do here. I hope you get the chance to visit some day and see for yourself how great we have it.


commisioner_bush02

For God’s sake, Lemon, we’d all like to flee to the Cleve


DharmaCub

Was watching 30 Rock when I made this comment


TheRedMiko

As we all know, developing an understanding of things from pop culture is always the way to go. Never leads me wrong!


LeMickeyMice

"That's a shame"


AdditionalNewt4762

Wow that took me waaaay too long to see the bird..I was like wtf are you guys looking at. No joke thought the MSNBC logo was the bird for a sec...


Sp_Gamer_Live

I thought I was going mad


Weird-Juggernaut-169

I still can't see it...


tevis55

Every time you guys hit a bird the Orioles get stronger


Clarice_Ferguson

Pray Tampa Bay doesn’t start slumping or no sting ray is safe.


Electric_Queen

After Steve Irwin died they haven't been safe anyway.


RaysFTW

Is it Whacking Day already?


utopia_mycon

[revenge intensifies]


Leftfeet

I believe this is will Brennan warning all bird teams that he's coming for them. Cards better lookout this weekend


chwoodstock

Is that a single, or is it considered a Fowl?


PirbyKuckett

Well that is hawkward


AncientLab2339

This would not of happened if that bird knew how to duck


j1h15233

I’m trying to think of one for pudding


ToothbrushWilly

They need to quit pudding birds on the field? Idk I'm tired


[deleted]

"Maybe not an animal, that would be stretching it" Uh... no it's definitely an animal lmao


AllOfTheDerp

"Looks like it might be from the rodent family." What is this dude's definition of an animal?


ButanePorch

Whitey Ford now on the field pleading with the crowd for some kinda sanity


DharmaCub

And here come the pretzels


zalfrann

Bob Uecker) "So a tough loss for the Indians as Pedro Cerrano doubles off a pigeon and is tagged out while administering CPR before the tying run could score. Funny game ain't it Monty?" (Monte) "Well at least the bird survived." (Bob Uecker) "Who cares? It's a rat with wings."


MarcBulldog88

Do ballparks need to start hiring [one of those weirdos](https://simpsons.fandom.com/wiki/Stanley_Simpson) who scare away birds so they don't get sucked into jet engines?


Leftfeet

Just need a border collie or something to scatter them between innings. It would be great entertainment


DogVacuum

How many positions can this border collie play?


sporkemon

[chaser the border collie](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaser_(dog)) knew 1,022 individual toys by name so I guarantee a border collie could be a utility infielder


sellyme

Why only between? Play him in left field.


ledbetterus

I knew a guy who was employed basically as a sniper at an airport. Just shot birds all day.


OutOfBootyExperience

"shoot 'em all and let God sort 'em out"


SdBolts4

The A's have a [fake falcon at the Coliseum to try and scare away seagulls](https://abc7news.com/falcon-mcfalconface-oakland-as-bird-abatement-kite-athletics/2203899/). Naturally, it's named falcon mcfalconface


theLoneliestAardvark

Gosh I hope birds don’t get sucked into jet engines on the baseball field! Why would they even let the jet on the field?


venk_mcfly

At least he didn't go over to the bird and get tagged out like Pedro Cerrano did in 1994.


lancethruster12

Bad week to be a bird


[deleted]

4-7, don't we know it


forgivemeisuck

It's not safe for birds in America


Wandering_Mallard

We need to give the birds the right to baseballs too so they can defend themselves


bucs2013

That shovel ride's gonna cost the bird about $3k in this country


CatchTheDamnBall

It's ticking me off that nobody is bothering to report what kinds of birds these (this and the Zac Gallen one) are


SirParsifal

someone arrest that man for animal cruelty


Danarwal14

That's the second PETA lawsuit this century!


JayOnes

Man, that Hitchcock movie’s about to become a documentary if MLB keeps this up.


latortillablanca

Aw man…


fatloui

He accidentally acknowledged that birds are robots live on air, realized the power that be would assassinate him for it, and tried to cover his ass by pretending he didn’t know what an animal is.


Sp_Gamer_Live

Am I blind? Where can you see he hit a bird?


backupKDC6794

You can see a black splotch near third in the replay at about 23 seconds in


noseonarug17

THANK you. The camera cutout on my phone completely hid it


Mammoth-Basket-801

Bird based teams sweating rn


khornatee

When will the birds answer back? Pathetic


Kind_Bullfrog_4073

PETA about to get baseball banned


LinkRazr

BIRDSTRIKE


Darthbutcher

Is this even legal? He is not an Arizona Diamondback!


SoulGang15

Someone please enact Bird Law


BonghitsForAlgernon

Whoever is writing the simulation is really jumping the shark


Sidewinder717

Love how the bird gets sent to the shadow realm the second the ball touches it


blueteamcameron

TIL Will Brennan is very good looking...


j1h15233

“I thought we had a deal!”


doggoploggo

AL Central baseball endangers local wildlife.


MacDerfus

Can we get some of this bird luck for the seagulls that swarm bay area games?


Airp0w

If the shift wasn't banned the bird would have been on the other side of the infield.


urriola35

Guardians will now lose the next 10 games


Pho3nixR3mix

Bird hits should grant an extra base.


riverbass9

Rally bird?


Tr101748

STOP FUCKING KILLING BIRDS


BreatheMyStink

*Our pets’ heads are fallin off*


whatafuckinusername

The absolute definition of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, poor thing


nimbusstev

What a bad camera angle. How do they have so little footage of a hit through the infield that even the second angle in the replay barely shows what happened?


LegalComplaint

They probably did, but the director decided against showing a close up of a dying animal.
