Pepper has remained a very athletic dog since a very young age. She enjoyed going for walks and playing fetch, but those were never enough for her. While figuring out what she would love most, her human family tried to play baseball with her. Then and there, she immediately took to the sport like a champ.
How did the MLB community react to Pepper’s batting skills?
Pepper has her home in Boston, Massachusetts, which has a passionate MLB following. So the people in her family might as well be Boston Red Sox fans. She has got a famous nickname as well, and it’s ‘Big Pupi.’ The name is obviously a tribute to baseball legend, Hall Of Fame inductee, and Red Sox legend, David ‘Big Papi’ Ortiz.
