William Shatner the new home plate umpire for The Boston Red Sox, music video preview now on YouTube
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Well, sort of.
Iconic film and TV legend William Shatner took to the field at Fenway Park to
portray the home plate umpire in the first music video ever to be filmed in its
entirety at the legendary baseball field, home to The Boston Red Sox.
Shatner co-stars in "At Fenway," a music video for "The Croonerman," Brian
Evans. The song is produced by Narada Michael Walden, who produced Evans new
CD/DVD special edition. Walden is known for producing Whitney Houston, Aretha
Franklin, and Elton John.
The music video is a campy portrayal of a fan of The Boston Red Sox.
"It's my fantasy, my field of dreams," says Evans.
Evans mother, Helen Bousquet, co-stars in the music video along with car magnate
Ernie Boch, Jr., who portrays the Red Sox manager in the music video. The video
was done with the full blessing of Major League Baseball and The Boston Red Sox.
A new CD/DVD will be available on ITunes entitled "Brian Evans - At Fenway." The
CD features 11 tracks produced by Walden, including original songs by Evans such
as "I'm A Traveler."
"Every Boston Red Sox fan we approached said that William Shatner as the home
plate umpire was as iconic as the ballpark itself," says Evans.
Brian Evans expects to make various appearances with Shatner throughout the
2013 baseball season. Evans will also appear on numerous talk shows to promote
the new music video.
An online store is now accepting pre-orders for the CD/DVD. The DVD features the
music video, and special footage including Shatner and Evans.
Shatner's role in "At Fenway," which was filmed at Fenway Park, was the first
time he'd ever set foot in the ballpark in his life.
