Justin Verlander sets his teammate on fire. Yup.
SB Nation Detroit gives us the details:
Former Twins pitcher Bert Blyleven was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame on Sunday. Blyleven is known best for his outstanding pitching, but he was also quite the prankster during his playing days. One of his favorite pranks was the hot foot, which involves a teammate’s shoe being set on fire while it’s being worn.
As a way to both prank Don Kelly and honor Blyleven, Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander pulled off the hot foot prank on Sunday in Minnesota. During the Tigers’ final game of the series against the Twins, FS Detroit cameras captured the prank, and MLB.com posted the video on Monday.
Awesome.
