Clooney Offered Baseball Deal
GEORGE CLOONEY has been given the chance to live out his sporting dream and spend the summer playing baseball.
The movie star was offered a contract to play for Ohio minor league team the Dayton Dragons during a recent TV interview with top producer Peter Guber, who owns the team.
The Batman producer threw Clooney a curveball on U.S. cable show Shootout, hurling him a team hat and pitching him the chance to play baseball.
Guber said, "We're ready to sign you up, anytime you're ready."
The offer isn't as bizarre as it seems - Clooney was considered a prospect for Ohio's major league team the Cincinnati Reds when he was a teenager.
