The Marlins want this aquarium in their stadium so badly that Marlins Executive VP for Ballpark Development Claude Delorme set up a pitching machine to launch baseballs at the tank with fish inside, to observe their reaction.
Is this animal cruelty?

Miami Marlins
The Miami Marlins baseball team are planning on installing a fully functioning aquarium in their backstop. That means that the only thing standing between fans and a wild 100 mph
fastball is, well, a thick layer of aquarium glass and about a hundred
or so terrified fish. Although tank designers have assured everyone that there is a very little chance of the glass shattering, there will still be very terrified fish getting hit with the occasional foul ball and being disturbed by thousands of screaming fans. Don Anthony, an animal rights spokesperson, states that"No matter how many shock absorbers they build into the system, if there
are thousands of fans screaming and jumping during a sporting event
it's going to affect the fish in there".
