From Yahoo:
BUFFALO, N.Y. - Seagulls shouldn't fly between Bisons and Bulls. One of the birds found that out during last Sunday's Triple-A minor league game between the Buffalo Bisons and the Durham Bulls. The Bisons were batting in the bottom of the eleventh when a seagull flew between the pitcher's mound and home plate just as Durham's pitcher released the ball.
The ball hit the bird. The batter swung at the ball and missed. The ball got away from the catcher. Since it was a third strike, the batter ran to first but was thrown out by the catcher to end the inning.
Meanwhile, the stunned bird lay on the ground in front of home plate.
While the umpires convened to discuss the bizarre play, a Buffalo player carried the seagull off the field. The bird later flew away.
Remember the bird Randy Johnson beaned? No flying away -- not even the possibility seeing as he knocked the critter right out from under it's feathers. Looked like a hand grenade had gone off inside a pillow. Vaporized it.
So are we witnessing the decline of the game? Could be.
