MLB player tries to practice with NHL team, can barely even skate.

A Major League Baseball player just learned the hard way that playing hockey may be harder than it looks.

On Friday during a Tampa Bay Lightning practice, Tampa Bay Rays player Kevin Kiermaier joined the team out on the ice, and to say his skating left quite a bit to be desired would be a major understatement.

Kiermaier frankly looked like Bambi out there on the ice, and the mere act of moving around nearly led to a couple of stumbles, but thankfully while the camera's were on him he managed to maintain his balance. He made a pretty big admissions as well:

"It's way harder than baseball if you ask me," said Kiermaier as per Roger Moore of the Tampa Bay Times.

Here are two videos of the rather funny practice.
