I have not been able to find a video on it. It happened long ago. There are a few pictures of it, but no videos that I have seen, and I think that is by design. It was a pretty gruesome punch. He shattered Rudy's jaw on impact, and there was an ever growing pool of blood under him as he lay on the floor. Kermit washington pretty much regretted it as soon as it happened. It changed his life forever. Thankfully they both recovered from both the physical and emotional injuries inflicted that day.

bunch of sport science geeks did an experiment on this project and they calculated the odds of this happening which is at 1 of 19 billion.

YouTube dropped that vid. But judging by your description of it, I have to assume it was the Randy Johnson fastball that hit that pigeon as it flew by right in his path. That was something else.

I noticed the clip disappeared as well, due to copyright violation or something. But that was the one with randy johnson's fastball crossing path with a bird.

The only other time in MLB that a bird was killed by a baseball was during a throw around warm up. Dave Winfield who was with the yankees at the time (i think) struck a bird with a baseball and knocked it dead. He got arrested after the game. PETA accused him of animal cruelty and attempted to file charge against him. Of course they were laughed out of the room and handed the hat.
