Drew Brees, playing softball in the hometown of his baseball idol, homered in his first at-bat Sunday in the MLB All-Star celebrity softball game in San Diego.
The home run came against former U.S. Soccer national team member Landon Donovan, and the game was part of the festivities leading to the MLB All-Star Game to be played Tuesday at Petco Park.
Although Bress had previously hit home runs in other games that featured him with other New Orleans Saints players, this might be the first for him in the hometown of Hall of Fame baseball player Ted Williams.
