Meet Brooks Rider, the future bat-dog of the Frisco Rough Riders. So far, Brooks has been getting a ‘Double A’ education, but he’s not scoring quite so high in the focus department.
Here’s a video of Brooks at a recent game where he shows off his bat-dog skills, or, well, lack thereof.
Brooks Whoops

Brooks has been the Rough Riders ambassador and team dog for 2 years. Prior to his minor league baseball career, Brooks was in training to be a guide dog. Which is probably why he’s so awesome at running the bases.
Watch out kid, Brooks forgot he isn’t on a football team

We know you got this Brooks. We believe in you.
And spring training was going so well
