Also, Gio Gonzalez has a french bulldog named Hollywood.
There she is above, in a pic Gio posted to his Instagram account in January, with caption: "She thinks she's high class #classybiatch she can't even look me in the eyes 😎"
Also worth noting: Gio made his first start of the spring for the Nats on Monday night (2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1BB, 2K), said it was "good to get back at it". After his start, reporters asked Gio about a fresh scar on his forehead. Blame it on a wrestling match with Hollywood:
"She gave me a rug burn. I hate her. And then I love her. And then I look in her face and then I love her again."

Anybody think to call him 'Scarface'?

Wash with soap and warm water, dry thoroughly, apply antibiotic ointment liberally (just not the pink cream).

Gio is a true character and great for the Nats' clubhouse. If he is 80% of what he was last season, that Nats' rotation will be special.
