Cubs Slugger Kris Bryant Goes Undercover to Prank College Baseball Team

The Chicago Cubs' Kris Bryant sharpened his already-electrifying batting skills in spring training with Arizona's Mesa Community College baseball team.

The team, however, wasn't aware.

In a prank made possible by Red Bull, the 2015 Rookie of the Year was introduced by Mesa head coach Tony Cirelli as Roy Nabryt, a European "donkey" with "crazy power" who could assist the team in its pursuit of a title.

The catch? Many of the current players would be losing time on the field to the undercover Bryant—a fact they were less than thrilled about.
