still one of the craziest things I've ever seen

What kind of bird was it?

Tarred and feathered

dove.

Did they pick the bird up and do anything with it?

it was out of season too

Yes, they resuscitated it, glued the feathers back on and sent him on his way.

We were standing in the parking lot watching some of the pros get their boats ready for the next day, in Corsicana 1996. David Dudley had one bad battery and borrowed mine to fish the next day.
As he was putting it in his boat he reached over and picked up a small dead bird from the floor of his boat. His remark was that he remembered backlashing but did not know why. The bird may have been hit by his lure.

A dead bird.

Did they play When Doves Cry on the speaker?

Nicely done.

Saw it happen one day on the golf course. The feather explosion wasn't that spectacular, but we saw the ball and the bird fall out of the sky.

yep, solid A

You win today! Well done sir!

Fowl ball !!!!!

Did you ever see the Office episode where that bird died?

I bet that bird instantly regretted flying under the radar.

Was the call a ball, strike or no call?

I remember this when it happened. The odds must have been astronomical.

Didn’t Dave Winfield powder a seagull with a line drive

Dead ball/no pitch according to wiki
