The lanky lefty has admitted that this has been a passion of his since he studied it in college.

After becoming a Major League pitcher, Randy Johnson had to take a step back from photography.

After retiring in 2009 and being elected to the Hall of Fame in 2015, he has found his passion again.

Randy Johnson hits bird 

It’s not often a spring training game goes down as one of most memorable games in MLB history, but 21 years ago, Randy Johnson gave one of the most infamous moments when his pitch didn’t make it to home plate Instead, it hit a bird. 

The left-handed Johnson was set to throw a pitch in the 7th inning when a bird flew in. The ball hit the bird as it flew in front of home plate.

Video shows feathers falling off the bird, which was likely a mourning dove, as it falls to the ground. Rod Barajas, the catcher at the time, said “all you see is an explosion.”

After the players realized what had happened, Giants second baseman Jeff Kent went on the field and picked up the bird with his bare hands and pointed it toward Johnson while smiling. He took it back to the dugout, but it is unknown what happened afterward.

A grounds crew member then picked and cleaned up the feathers that were on the field. 

What is doing now 

There are few athletes who have lived a better life in their retirement than Randy Johnson. The Hall of Fame pitcher, the Mariners and Diamondbacks legend, walked away from the game in 2010 and discovered a love of photography. He’s never looked back.

Now, people who didn’t know about Johnson’s career change are learning about if for the first time — and discovering how amazing he is, all over again.

In truth, photograph was Johnson’s first love — he just happened to be really, really, really good at baseball. He studied photojournalism at USC from 1983-85, and the “about” section of his photography website notes that baseball was his occupation, but photography was his passion.

Don’t get it twisted, Johnson obviously loved the game of baseball too, but he acknowledges that the fame of being a pro athlete (and the money, naturally) has afforded him opportunities to get where other photographers might not, and travel to places beyond the means of many.

Also, we can’t discuss this any longer without mentioning that Johnson has, without question, the funniest logo he could ever have for his photography business.
