The Milwaukee Brewers are down in Arizona right now for spring training, and at one of the first days of their new season they happened upon a stray dog roaming around their practice field. After failing to locate an owner, the team has been taking care of the little guy. They named him Hank after Hank Aaron, and he’s become the unofficial mascot of the team.
He’s been helping out the coaches.

And making sure the guys have enough Gatorade.

He’s taken some infield practice, too.

Mostly he’s hung out and made sure spirits are high.

Go Brewers and go Hank! We’ll keep you posted on whether or not his owner is found, and whether or not more photographers take awesome pictures of him.
