'Funny or Die' to invade @MLB, @Dodgers, @Braves
"Funny or Die" will take over the @MLB, @Dodgers and @Braves Twitter accounts during the Braves-Dodgers game in Los Angeles on Sunday.
The comedy-video website, which counts comedian Will Ferrell and director Adam McKay among its creators, has built an audience of more than 6 million followers on Twitter (@funnyordie). For Major League Baseball's first live game takeover, "Funny or Die" staff will enjoy exclusive behind-the-scenes field access at Dodger Stadium and tweet in real time from their seats.
As "Funny or Die" tweets its coverage, Sunday's Braves-Dodgers game will also be streamed online as MLB.TV's Free Game of the Day.
ATTENTION: @funnyordie is taking over this account on Sunday, LIVE from the @dodgers-@braves game which we'll be streaming FREE on @mlbtv.
