Canada goose occupies center field during MLB game

March 9 (UPI) -- A Canada goose stole the show during a spring training game in Arizona when the bird refused to give up its position in center field.

The Cactus League game between the Chicago Cubs and the Arizona Diamondbacks in Scottsdale on Sunday saw a Canada goose take up position in center field and refuse to budge, causing distractions for both teams.

The game went forward with the goose standing on the field.

The cameras recording the game captured the moment the goose was involved in an altercation with a second goose, leading to a mid-air beak attack that left one of the birds with a mouthful of feathers.
