Second baseman for the San Fransico Giants, Scooter Gennett, furry friend Leo is all smiles. During the 2018 offseason, Gennett and his wife Kelsey rented an RV to take Leo to spring training with them. Due to his size the Gennetts would have to put Leo in the checked baggage compartment under the plane. Instead, they took him across the country in comfort in the RV.
