It's that feeling we all k**w too well: when you have to hand off all your Olympic gold medals so you can comfortably throw a pitch at a Major League Baseball game.
Formidable swimmer Katie Ledecky (http://mashable.com/category/katie-ledecky/?utm_campaign=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial&utm_cid=Mash-Prod-RSS-Feedburner-All-Partial) won five medals — four gold, one silver — in Rio.

Luckily, major league MVP Bryce Harper was right there to help.
