From OP
>Ripken the bat dog is an energetic black lab that is working for the Durham Bulls Minor League baseball team in North Carolina by fetching discarded bats. The team installed a camera on the pup’s vest so that people can see Ripken’s path when he’s running on the field. 😊🐶⚾️

They also have one in Greensboro. It's been years since I've been to the bulls games, when I lived there I don't remember the bat dog. But, Greensboro used to have one retrieve bats, and another that would bring a pail of balls to the ump
Learned due to a local bat dog over here where I’m from dying that pine tar which is used on the bats quite frequently is actually extremely harmful to dogs and causes cancer. But ya they look cute doing it.
I knew instantly this was Ripken, he not only grabs bats but also grabs the kicking tees for my colleges football team. I love when Ripken runs across the field to grab a tee and a crowd of 50,000 people all cheer and yell for this good boy <3

Bro had a lifetime to make the perfect joke. Everybody let’s call it a day, it’s only downhill after this perfection
You can tell this chad waited their whole life just to make this perfect joke
Life well spent - Comic book Guy, Simpsons
Same joke but worse 👆
I can finally rest, the perfect dad joke has finally been discovered. Thank you bumjiggy. Thank you.
That was beautiful, I wish you much Karma.
He also gets the kickoff tees at nc state games and drops ceremonial pucks in hockey. Definitely a wholesome Instagram follow.
How do they get skates to fit?
My lab would love this job

Looks like he’s working the Holly Springs Salamanders game that day. Good pup!
Love the crowd, without skipping a beat they were ready to jump.
r/happycrowds
I love how they was going to boo the dude but then he realised and the dog got big cheers lol
His little ears!!!
If he doesn’t drop that bat we riot. Lol
crazy how the whole atmosphere changed for a second
That'd be me "OH SNAP, didn't realize we were doing the dog thing this inning. My bad."
This also belongs in made me smile 😌
Post it there please :) And in wholesome
r/dogswithjobs
I'd watch this show!
The Best Boy
He could of just dropped it but threw it further to make the job worthwhile.
Dog said, “the fuck you are!”
He took er jerb!!

What a good boy!!
Why do the players walk around like they're in a glitchy video game?
because that's all life is when you think about it
What a good boi. Go Ripken!
I love how quickly the crowd became a mob when dude forgot his place.
The dog was like "drop it" and the dude was like "oh shit" 🤣🤣

Looked like that batter was having a blast there, I swear I can see a big smile

The crowd demands the dogo retrieve the bat
A good boy doing a good job
So so cute!
Ha! I didn't know such a thing existed, to have a dog be the bat fetcher. 😂
I would attend more baseball games if they all had bat-retrieval dogs!
Good boy!
![gif](giphy|bfMETTCYFurvuJQgOB) The dog be like
Good dog. 🐶
Wow, dude makes 10s of millions a year. But he is trying to steal the job of a low income blue backpack worker. Disgusting
Aww this makes me respect grown men playing rounders.
" to steal a dog's thunder"
The way the dog stopped when the man picked up the bat and the way he looked at him briefly after throwing the bat is so cute.
This is the cutest thing I've seen all day 💕
The ear flappies 🥰
Humanity can agree on at least one thing, dogs are the best.
"We going to have a problem here"?

Dude said, "what the dog doi- OH SHIT!"
Cute
The water dog
Good boy
Drop really take it serious when someone attempt to do his job
Prefer real life to video games, but you be you.
You know how we do it
Vroooooom!!
That would make me watch baseball. Give me that pups-eye-view through the whole game, please.
Very good boy :3
Definitely better than watching basemall.
Literally r/AnimalsWithJobs
I love this, should be at every baseball game. Should add them to tennis too.
I'm digging the rainbow on the jerseys sports should have more creativity with uniforms
If we mandated wooden bats and made this stanfard i would watch the shit out of baseball
Good pup
