The sentence with a mismatched subject and modifier is "Ducking under an awning, the heavy rain caught me without a coat or an umbrella." This sentence is wrong because it implies that the heavy rain was the one ducking under an awning. In this sentence, the word after the comma should be the one doing the action of "ducking".
