A’s John Jaso chases a pesky bird off the field with a bat (GIF)
By Dan Zinski
A bird invaded the infield in the first inning of Monday’s A’s-Tigers game. A’s catcher John Jaso did what he had to do, using his bat to chase off the pesky animal before it had a chance to peck, claw or poop on anyone.

The bird, as you see in the GIF, was in no hurry to leave the field. He was enjoying his time down there with the baseball players. He may even have been taunting John Jaso. He did it for the Vine!
It’s a good thing the bird didn’t invade Dodger Stadium or they might have set it on fire. The Dodgers enjoy setting things on fire.
You know what I’d like to hear? Vin Scully doing the play-by-play on a player chasing a bird around the field with a bat. Sublime.
Everything is better with Scully. Maybe when Scully is done with baseball announcing – as if that would ever happen – he could start a new career narrating porn.
It’s a dream of mine to hear Vin Scully doing play-by-play for hardcore S&M pornography. I know it’s weird but I don’t care.
Hey, has anyone done John Jaso chasing bird with bat with Yakety Sax. I love Yakety Sax!
