| Paxton And Friend |
Here's our suggestion to MLB Commissioner
Rob Manfred: build a statue at the
Hall Of Fame to Seattle Mariner pitcher
James Paxton for
his amazing interaction with an American Bald Eagle on the field yesterday. It would be such an iconic image of the greatness of baseball and its importance to the American way of life. Future generations of kids will flock around the statue in awe and amazement as their parents and grandparents recount the day in 2018 when Paxton stood stoic as the bird landed on his shoulder while he stood in LF during
Opening Day ceremonies at
Target Field in Minneapolis. Said Paxton:
"I'm not gonna outrun an eagle, so just thought, we'll see what happens." Now,
that's a true American hero. You can view a video of the incident
HERE.
