Angels' Hector Santiago fails miserably at the cinnamon challenge

Watch Hector Santiago attempt the cinnamon challenge.

Los Angeles Angels pitcher Hector Santiago recently decided to amuse himself and his teammates in the clubhouse by being the newest person to embark on the cinnamon challenge, a craze that swept the nation a few years ago.

How long could the Major League pitcher keep the cinnamon contained in his mouth? Would he show that he's better than many of the rest? 

Well...no. Not even close.
