Justin Timberlake was in town to film scenes from his movie "The Open Road" where he plays a fictional Corpus Christi Hooks baseball player named Carlton Garrett. The film teams Timberlake with Mary Steenburgen, Kate Mara and Jeff Bridges, who plays Garrett's father, a legendary athlete. The film was inspired by the director Michael Meredith's life. His father is legendary Dallas Cowboys quarterback Don Meredith.They shot scenes before, during and after Sunday's game, and Timberlake apparently is a righty, but for some reason they had him batting left... maybe since he was such a bad batter either way ;-)
Timberlake's girlfriend, actress Jessica Biel, stood near the dugout for some of the shoot but went back to the Hooks' clubhouse after about half an hour, waving at fans as she walked by. Two bodyguards stood watch over Biel and Timberlake.
