everyone looks towards second base...

Polvo's Duck sees the pitcher isn't paying attention. He
breaks for third base. The pitcher slowly winds up and
forgets all about checking the the runner. The pitch comes
in. The duck is three quarters of the way to third. The
catcher fires it up the line. The duck slides. A cloud of
star dust arises. The third base umpire bangs him out!

It was a close play. The call could have gone either way.
The duck almost made it to third.

It certainly was a Close Encounter Of The Third Kind!
