Major League Baseball Hall of Famer Tony Gwynn passed away Monday from cancer. He was 54 years old. We were pretty bummed to hear about Gwynn's passing since we had all grown up watching him play with the San Diego Padres.

Dads can pretty much do it all. From a young age, we learn to look up to our dad as a model of who we want to become. For girls, your father is the measuring stick for every other guy in your life.

Baseball has been around since the 1800s. So, by this point, we've pretty much seen everything there is to see. Not a whole lot surprises us anymore. Sure, every now and then you see an incredible play or some kind of anomaly, but nothing quite like this.

This prank is one of the best ongoing pranks anyone has ever taken part in.

He may play for the Boston Red Sox, but Jonny Gomes sure looked more like a New England Patriot on Tuesday.
