The throw was captured by cameras for Diamondbacks ; broadcaster Bally Sports Arizona. Johnson infamously killed a bird during a spring training game in 2001.

As many as 60 residents have evacuated, Fire Chief Hayden Boyd said. Water had already begun to recede, but more needed to before the town is safe to return to, Boyd added.The flooding incident was among several to recently wreak havoc on a drought-stricken region that spans from Dallas, Texas to Las Vegas, Nevada ?stranding tourists, closing highways and funneling trees and rocks toward downtowns. Heavy rains pummeled the Dallas-Fort Worth area, causing streets to flood and submerging vehicles as officials warned motor <a href=Link cup</a> ists to stay off the roads. And rescue teams in southern Utah expanded their search for a lost hiker who found herself stranded amid torrential flooding.
