Well, maybe the players had something to do with it....
I don't know what it is with pigeons and baseball but those guys seem to love the game. They also appear to have no fear at all of being run over by a sprinting outfielder or getting hit with a hard line drive up the middle. On Sunday afternoon with the Nationals trailing 6-2 to the San Francisco Giants, a pigeon made its way onto the outfield grass behind 2nd base. What happened next was one of the most amazing innings of baseball of 2014, and another huge Nationals comeback.
