When Doves Cry (Or Randy Johnson Pitches)

Greetings, you sick little monkeys! ROBOGEEK here with what must be one of the most shocking moments in sports history.

Last night on CNN Sports Illustrated, an absolutely horrifying highlight aired - over and over and over - from Saturday's apocalyptic baseball match-up between the Diamondbacks and the Giants.

It starts innocently enough, with Randy Johnson on the mound winding up for a pitch. But then, like some angry Greek god, he unleashes a fast ball from hell on a date with destiny...

A dark destiny.

Amazingly, this clip apparently hasn't been posted on CNNSI.com (as far as I can tell), so - at the urging of El Cosmico - I decided to digitize and post it for posterity (perhaps against my better judgment).

Behold the terror for yourself (along with explanatory play-by-play commentary) in a 3.2MB 160x120 QuickTime file by clicking on THIS LINK - if you dare.

Just don't say I didn't warn ya...

P.S.: For those of you who can't believe what you're seeing - or are just depraved enough to want a closer look at this crime against nature - you can download a 1.3MB 320x240 QuickTime version of the isolated clip itself by clicking on THIS LINK. You sick little monkeys...

P.P.S.: If you are so moved (and you should be!), consider making a memorial donation to PETA. (It'll make you feel better about yourself.)
