GIF: Encarnacion 'walks the parrot' in MLB The Show 16
Video games continue to closely resemble real life.
The latest example comes via Sony Computer Entertainment's "MLB The Show 16" game, which is set to officially launch March 29.
Footage of Toronto Blue Jays designated hitter Edwin Encarnacion has surfaced from the game depicting the slugger rounding the bases in his trademark "walking the parrot" pose:

What hasn't surfaced, however, is where Encarnacion will be plying his trade by the end of the 2016 season.
The 33-year-old's spring training deadline for contract negotiations with the Blue Jays is looming on the horizon, but Encarnacion and general manager Ross Atkins have yet to agree on an extension.
