In Orioles' 18-inning, 5:45 marathon win vs Ms, winning P Tommy Hunter's hat was hit by seagull droppings. Really:

“I was minding my own business, not doing anything. I thought it was (reliever Luis) Ayala throwing stuff at me. You know, he usually does. So I didn’t know what it was,” Hunter said. “I just thought someone threw a piece of gum and hit me. It wasn’t a piece of gum, man. Everybody just started dying laughing. Then everybody said it was good luck. Then we won. ... I was getting ready to go warm up and it went (plop) and I looked at it and everyone started laughing. I had bird (droppings) on my head.” He won the game while waering the soiled hat.
