Oakland Athletics’ Josh Reddick stars in Vine video PSA: ‘Put the cart in the CART BIN!’

Slugger Josh Reddick of the Oakland Athletics finds himself on the disabled list right now because of a right wrist injury. That gives him extra time to go to Target and resume his role as a consumer, which are vital to the United States economy. But Reddick, a former Answer Man victim, is also a thoughtful shopper.

When Reddick recently noticed shopping carts accumulating where they don't belong — up on a sidewalk instead of the cart bin — he got perturbed. But he also got out his mobile phone to make a video on Vine. Vine videos are kind of like GIF animations with sound. They're short, and they amusingly (and/or annoyingly) loop over and over again. Reddick's public-service message was this:

Amen, brother. Notice that he puts the cart in the cart bin with his left (non-injured) wrist. That's thinkin'. Now here's to Reddick getting his stroke back, once he has his health. It would be good karma for cleaning up the parking lots of 'Merica.
