On Thursday, Will Ferrell is setting out to accomplish a feat never been done before.
The actor and comedian will spend the day playing all nine positions at different Cactus League games as part of a cancer awareness event. According to The Chicago Tribune, the charitable event was “coordinated by Major League Baseball and HBO, which will film a special.”
In order to make the tight schedule work Ferrell will be shuttled from game to game by helicopter, USA Today’s Sports Columnist Bob Nightengale reported on Twitter.
