(WSVN) — A pooch that claims to be “the best dog in professional baseball” certainly lived up to his title during a recent game, amazing everyone in attendance!

Video shared by WPTA sports anchor Zach Groth showed Jake the diamond dog saunter up to umpires at the Fort Wayne Tincaps game and carrying a basket filled with water bottles in his mouth.

With the summer temperatures taking a toll, Jake recognized a need to keep them hydrated. Jake even waited patiently for the umpires to finish their water before trotting back to the dugout.

Jake has been a fixture at the minor-league stadium for years, bringing the game ball to the pitcher each game. This viral video just might punch him a ticket to the majors.
