Hazing can be fun, as long as it's done right. The Astros seem to have it down to a science.
↵As Alyson Footer so carefully chronicles, the Astros took to the streets of Chicago to embarrass their rookies in the funniest ways possible. It's a tradition - the "Rookie Road Trip" - but this time, the hilarity ensued after the day game at Wrigley. This, among other possibilities, is surely how a team can recover from a tough loss.
↵Exhibit A of the creative genius of this project? Ace and Gary make an appearance.
