Blue Jays Obscure Memories: Dave Winfield accidentally kills a bird

Yesterday I asked my Twitter followers to give me some of their favourite obscure moments from Blue Jays history, and I’ll likely turn it into a bit of a mini-series while we wait for the return of Major League Baseball.

One of the better ones to come out of the thread yesterday was a story I had forgotten about until it was mentioned, and we have to go back to 1983 to tell this tale. A hat tip to @sdenison70 for bringing this one back for me, and likely for many of you.

In August of that year, the Blue Jays were playing a series in Toronto against the New York Yankees.
