David Nail Suits Up for MLB All Star Legends & Celebrity Softball Game

“Those guys don’t mess around,” Nail says of his fellow players. “They get on the field to play hard – and they do. 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.”

For fans who can’t watch the game live in Kansas City, ESPN will broadcast the Legends/Celeb Softball Game immediately after the Home Run Derby Monday, July 9. In a special double header, the Derby starts at 8 pm Eastern; the Softball Game is slated for approximately 10:30. It’s also available through ESPN3.com, ESPN Mobile and the Watch ESPN app.

“What makes this even better for me,” says the man who played in this game two years ago in Anaheim, “is it’s being played in my home state of Missouri. It’s like coming home, playing major league ball – which was a dream of mine – and still getting to make my music. It’s everything I love about who I am and where I’m from.”
