Meet George Kottaras’ dog, Baseball Dog

The Cubs invited Kottaras to bring Baseball Dog to training camp and Photo Day because that is the most obvious thing in the world to do. Well, the second most obvious thing to do behind toilet photos. There are plenty of photos of Baseball Dog with Kottaras, and all the best ones include Baseball Dog doing his favorite activity: baseball-having:

Baseball Dog is the best baseball dog since Hank, who is the best baseball dog since World Series MVP Air Bud. I made Baseball Dog a baseball card because he is a good dog:
