Disney XD is airing a reality special titled “Batboy” on April 5th to commemorate Opening Day of baseball season.
Major League Baseball is behind the 15-minute broadcast, which will offer behind-the-scenes footage of the life of a teenage batboy, Daniel Chelgren, who works for the Arizona Diamondbacks baseball team.
Daniel said about the experience:
“I was a little bit leery at first because I don’t like being the center of attention with the team, because (being a batboy) is supposed to be a fly-on-the-wall kind of thing. Having a camera crew follow me around, being miked up, was kind of a different experience.”
Also playing on April 5th on Disney XD are “The Sandlot: Heading Home” and a special boxing-themed episode of “Zeke and Luther.”
