Most Easter bunnies have it easy: Pose for pictures, hand out candy, play nice with the kids.
Then there's Alex Krebs.
The 22-year-old did more than most holiday hares are asked to do.
"I threw a strike," he said. "I was very amazed I was able to do it."
As part of last year's Easter promotion before an Illinois baseball game, the then-intern got into a heavy bunny costume and delivered the ceremonial first pitch. Barely able to see his target and using one hand to hold the loose-fitting headgear in place, Krebs managed not to mess up despite a furry grip.
