Okay, kids at his ball game and something unusual happens.

Two ducks, a male and female land in the middle of right field where he's playing.

He does his best to ignore them, we get the last out and retires to take their last at bat.

As the other team takes the field, the ducks are still there of course...the players start to warm up.

The kid playing center field takes the ball and beans the female duck. She flops over and basically continues to flop over until one of the dads from our team (wish I had done it myself actually) runs out there and picks it up carefully and moves it off the field. I get over to the other side and the duck's neck is clearly not straight, it can't walk straight and is clearly in bad shape.

Oh my god folks were shocked and horrified, they finished the game and all that.

We called local animal control and they came and got her to see what they could do for the duck.

oh man. Terrible thing...
