Rockies ‘steer’ spring training’s focus towards the bull-pen for a day

The Colorado Rockies had a special guest in Arizona on Tuesday. As part of a team-building activity, the brought in a longhorn bull. The Los Angeles Dodgers, who they will play Tuesday afternoon, need not worry however.

A bull in the bullpen, eh? Could be an intimidating site. One person who was not intimidated was outfielder Gerardo Parra, who was able to climb aboard for longer than the requisite eight seconds.

As part of a presentation, the Rockies also learned about a cow’s anatomy and the origins of different cuts of meat. How this will translate on a baseball diamond remains to be seen, but at least now, they know their way around the horn.
