As the baseball season approaches the playoffs, Ken Jeong, Steve Carell, and Colin Hanks celebrate three amazing plays from Major League Baseball’s postseason history. As part of the Stand Up for Cancer campaign, the trio of actors go to Boston’s Fenway Park to create a spot includes broadcasts of the historic plays including:
– LA Dodgers Kirk Gibson, hobbled by a pulled hamstring and a swollen knee, delivers a pinch-hit, walk-off home run off Oakland Athletics closer Dennis Eckersley in Game 1 of the 1988 World Series and limps around the bases.
– NY Giant Willie Mays makes his over-the-shoulder basket catch to rob Cleveland Indian Vic Wertz of extra bases in Game 1 of the 1954 World Series.
– NY Yankee Derek Jeter makes the famous backhand toss to Jorge Posada in Game 3 of the 2001 AL Division Series to tag out Jeremy Giambi.
They are connected by a belief in miracles on the playing field with a shared vision of ending cancer. See more videos about defeating cancer: Star Wars : Stand Up To Cancer – Use The Force For Good,
