Braun Strowman, Josh Reddick grapple with 'ChangeUp' questions image

WWE Superstar Braun Strowman continued his tour of MLB stadiums Wednesday with an appearance at Houston's Minute Maid Park, site of the 2020 Royal Rumble. The "Raw" wrestler threw the ceremonial first pitch prior to the Twins-Astros game.

Before he took the mound for that toss, he took a few minutes to talk wrestling, baseball and powerlifting on "ChangeUp," DAZN's nightly MLB show. Strowman had a co-star for his segment: Astros outfielder and wrestling superfan Josh Reddick.

The Monster dwarfed Reddick, who's listed at 6-2 and 195 pounds and knows better than to risk getting those hands if he ever enters the ring.

Strowman, the son of a prodigious slow-pitch softball power hitter, was in Milwaukee on Sunday to do the first-pitch honors before a Dodgers-Brewers game. His catcher that afternoon? Ryan Braun, of course.

Earlier this month, Strowman made an appearance at Yankee Stadium during the buildup to WrestleMania 35.
