Ferrell partnered with MLB to appear in five Cactus League games. Footage will be part of an HBO special that’s raising money to fight cancer.
Comedian, actor, and paragon of American athleticism Will Ferrell hit the baseball diamond Thursday to play EVERY position.
The spring training spectacular had Ferrell scheduled to play in five Arizona exhibition games and was filmed for an upcoming HBO special.
The equipment he uses — including jerseys from 10 teams — will be auctioned off to raise money for those fighting cancer, the Los Angeles Times reported.
