What is a tractor doing on home plate? The American Defenders, a Can-Am League team located in Nashua, New Hampshire, that is co-run by former Red Sox general manager Dan Duquette is a little behind on their payments to the city. In fact, between the city itself, the Police, and Fire, the Defenders owe more than $50,000.

How can they send a message that says, you are not playing baseball here tonight. They could lock the gates. They did that, but we all know the team can still get in and play the game, even if a crowd isn't on hand, which it hasn't been anyway. What if they place a huge tractor on home plate to teach them a lesson? Bingo. And there you have it. Complements to Chris the Intern who risked his life to take this picture.
