It is possible to rain frogs. If there is a waterspout that sucks up a lot of water and it has frog eggs in it, or even baby frogs, they come out sooner of later.

It is plausible that a waterspout could pick up some fish and maybe some frogs along the way and then deposit them in the back yard. But if that was true one would expect for there to be far many more fish hitting the ground than bull frogs.
It is much more likely that a Spring or Summer rain will promote the hatching of non-aquatic toad- frog eggs.

Surprisingly it does sometimes.

Of course this only occurs if a storm or something like it sucks up frogs as well as water, and starts to rain nearby.

Yuck, lot's of frog guts everywhere.

Yes it can. There are documented cases of this. Here is one:

In 1873, Scientific American reported that Kansas City, Missouri was blanketed with frogs that dropped from the sky during a storm.

Speaking from personal experience, I have only seen water rain. It's just a hunch, but I suspect that's all you're going to see on earth.
