I thought it was impossible for someone not to love the idea of the minor league baseball bat dog.

You take an adorable pooch who thinks that fetching a Louisville Slugger is the most magnificent thing on earth, and everyone is happy.

Well, I think we may have found one guy who is a little less enthused about the idea of bat dogs.

Coming up a little gimpy after jumping out of the way of one will have that effect.

According to The New York Post, Kendall George is the No. 13-ranked prospect in the Los Angeles Dodgers’ minor league system and is currently playing for the Tulsa Drillers.

During the second inning of a recent meeting with the Northwest Arkansas Naturals — with Tulsa already leading 13-6 at that point, which is wild — George scored on an RBI single.

The camera momentarily cut away from him, but when it cut back, he was in some clear pain and spiked his batting helmet.

A quick replay revealed that he had hurt something while sidestepping a furry, bat-seeking missile.

That last-minute dodge caused George to tweak something, and the 21-year-old prospect had to leave the game.

Let’s not place the blame on the good boy or girl who was just doing a great job at work.

If there is a bat on the ground, they will retrieve it at all costs.

But I feel like anyone who owns a dog has pulled the same move George did and probably completed it without incident dozens of times. Just the other day, I had to do it because my French bulldog was pumped about riding in the car.

I’m fine (by the grace of God, apparently), but for some reason, George came up hobbled.

I can’t imagine that this will have the team rethinking bat dogs. They’re as much a part of the fabric of minor league baseball as affordable tickets and temporarily rebranding as a funny name like the Motorboaters or Bung Hammers.
