The star-studded Celebrity Softball game as part of MLB’s All-Star week consisted of actors Rob Lowe, J.K. Simmons, musicians Bad Bunny and Action Bronson, and more.
But one familiar face stole the show.
Actor Bryan Cranston, the critically acclaimed actor best known for his role as Walter White in “Breaking Bad,” showed why he’s one of the most beloved celebrities in Hollywood.
The 66-year-old rocked an Albuquerque Isotopes hat, in reference to the hit AMC series and also used the “Breaking Bad” and “Malcolm in the Middle” theme songs during his plate appearances.
Cranston, in true Walter White fashion, wasn’t afraid of confrontation.
In the final inning, softball legend Jennie Flinch threw a questionable inside pitch to Cranston, resulting in a strikeout. Cranston was disgruntled and not pleased with the umpire’s call.
“It was inside,” Cranston yelled as he kicked dirt towards the umpire’s feet. “You’re stealing the game from us!”
However, despite actor JK Simmons’ efforts to try and separate the two, Cranston felt dejected and he emerged with a bucket of bubble gum and threw the candy all over the field.
Cranston nearly missed the game due to injury.
During batting practice, Grammy Award-winning singer Anthony Ramos struck Cranston in the right shoulder on a line drive hit.
“It’s definitely going to bruise,” Cranston said after recovering. “I might be more of a cheerleader in this game.” Of course, the larger-than-life Cranston was a good sport and shrugged it off.
Team Brooklyn beat Cranston and Team Los Angeles 15-13.
Cranston is set to reprise his role as Walter White in the final season of “Better Call Saul,” a “Breaking Bad” prequel based around White’s crooked lawyer Saul Goodman, played by Bob Odenkirk.
This idiot is an embarrasment to humanity, what a fool. I’d like to have him in a room for 10 minutes and he be crying and wimpering like a half dead dog, he’s a radical pussy, who needs his ass beat.
