A tale of two Hanks.

Peanut butter and jelly, pepperoni and pizza. Some things were meant to go together. In baseball we’ve been robbed of some of these moments, until now. This is Hank Aaron with Hank the Ballpark Pup. It is now the most perfect photo of the year.

Hank and Hank became fast friends. Just look how happy they both are! Grins from ear to ear. Two Hanks are better than one, so MORE HANKS!

We <3 you, Hanks
