David Nail will take the field in Kansas City as part of the Taco Bell All Star Legends & Celebrity Softball Game on Sun., July 8.
Nail will join MLB greats Ernie Banks, Andre Dawson, Rollie Fingers, Ozzie Smith and Mike Piazza as well as Modern Family star Eric Stonestreet, Mad Men‘s Jon Hamm, Glee’s Chord Overstreet and Kansas City Royals favorites George Brett, Bo Jackson and Mike Sweeney. Other celebrity participants include US National Soccer Team captain Carlos Bocanegra, US Softball Gold Medalist Jennie Finch and Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Matt Cassel.
“They get on the field to play hard – and they do,” says Nail of his fellow players. “I know I’m honored to get out there with those folks and play softball… because they’re not joking around, and that’s the best kind of game.”
