Baseball star's viral video sparks a buzz

Viral Video Time! Evan Longoria saves a reporter’s life

Here's a viral video that has been making the rounds last week: Maybe you've seen the Tampa Bay Rays star third baseman Evan Longoria (notes) of saving the "ball of a television reporter distracted incredible grip ?

The video, of course, is as real as Longoria hanging from a helicopter while searching for his lost cap last year. As for the flags in the background, it is not difficult to decipher what companies sponsored Longoria coughed to the CGI either. The subliminal message sent by Gillette in this list? smooth motion.

Still, it's a very cleverly produced and it is fun to watch and play again, so no problem here with the way along. Maybe next Longo function can throw the ball in the air with their AK-47 loss?

PS - The stadium used for the filming seems to Bradenton McKechnie Field, home of spring training for the Pittsburgh Pirates and about a 30 minute drive over the Sunshine Skyway Bridge at Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg. Super convenient for Longoria.
