The Randy Johnson bird was in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Rally Bird joins the likes of Rally Monkey and Rally Squirrel.

Rally Monkey (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rally_Monkey) (Los Angeles Angels – MLB)

A famous unofficial “mascot” for the Los Angeles Angels baseball team. When the Angels were behind late in games, a video of a monkey dancing (often with a “RALLY TIME!” sign) would appear on the scoreboard, and fans embraced it as a good-luck charm.

Rally Squirrel (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rally_Squirrel) (St. Louis Cardinals – MLB)

During the 2011 postseason, a grey squirrel ran across the field at Busch Stadium and became a good-luck symbol dubbed the Rally Squirrel. Fans embraced it as an unofficial mascot and it became part of that Cardinals’ World Series run.

Wasn't there a black cat that was running around the field at a baseball game a few years ago? I think it was in NY?
