Brandon Belt Meets Brandon Belt, the Baby Giraffe

September 1, 2011 by Larry Brown • Comments

Earlier this week we told you that a baby giraffe was born at Six Flags Discovery Kingdom Bay Area last Friday. The folks in charge at Six Flags decided to name the giraffe after Giants rookie Brandon Belt. Incidentally, Belt’s nickname with the Giants is “baby giraffe.” Yup, it all works.

Well like we told you, the two were set to meet this week and that happened on Thursday. Peep the pics of the two giraffes courtesy of The Veteran and the Rook via Big League Stew:

Human Brandon Belt should be proud because for the time being he’s actually taller than his mammalian counterpart. See the image below:
