Brandon McCarthy gets snuggly with Hank the Dog

With the Diamondbacks in Milwaukee this week, pitcher Brandon McCarthy made sure he had time to cuddle up with the Brewers mascot, pet, and good luck charm, Hank the Dog.

While giving the pup a healthy scratch behind the ears, McCarthy admitted that there "should be more dogs in public to play with." It's a stance that, should McCarthy ever desire to run for office, would earn him a lot of votes. Even Frank Underwood couldn't argue with that one. 

And though Hank didn't offer his own statement, he was pretty adorable in McCarthy's arms, which is more than enough for us.
