As fans of international baseball are undoubtedly aware, qualifiers for the World Baseball Classic are about to begin at MCU Park, the home of the Brooklyn Cyclones. From Thursday-Sunday, Brazil, Great Britain, Israel and Pakistan will vie for the remaining spot in the 2017 WBC.
Clubs are already working out in Brooklyn, and Team Israel had a visitor on Tuesday -- sports anchor Dan Rydell from CSC's "Sports Night," presumably doing some hands-on reporting:

(OK, fine, his real name is Josh Charles, he's an actor, and you probably know him best from CBS' "The Good Wife". And "Sports Night" isn't real. Sigh.)
