During a recent game against the Dodgers, Giants star Jung Hoo Lee experienced an unusual moment when a bird flew past him just before his at-bat in the bottom of the 4th inning. The incident led to a timeout being called, and broadcasters Kuiper and Krukow expressed their surprise. This distraction seemed to affect Lee's performance, as he popped out immediately afterward. Ultimately, the Giants lost to the Dodgers 2-1, and the incident recalls a similar one involving Randy Johnson and a bird in 2001.
During Saturday's game against the Dodgers, Giants star Jung Hoo Lee dodged a flying bird just before his at-bat in the bottom of the 4th inning.
Kuiper and Krukow were astonished by the occurrence, with Kuiper questioning, 'Was that a bird?' and Krukow remarking, 'That's a first.'
Lee's encounter with the bird appeared to disrupt his focus, leading to a pop-out, contributing to the Giants' eventual 2-1 loss.
Fans may recall a similar incident from 2001 involving Randy Johnson, who famously struck and killed a bird while pitching during a spring training game.
