Dirk Nowitzki's 2017 Heroes Celebrity Baseball Game

A host of famous faces from sports and entertainment will join Dallas Mavs star Dirk Nowitzki for fun and games on the baseball field. The all-star event, presented by Baylor Scott & White Medical Center at Frisco, benefits the Dirk Nowitzki Foundation and the Heroes Foundation.

This year's celebrity athletes roster includes Dallas Cowboys Dak Prescott, Dez Bryant, Ezekiel Elliott, Dan Bailey and more; tennis legend Andy Roddick; Dallas Mavericks J.J. Barea, Seth Curry, Devin Harris and others; actor Geoff Stults; former Texas Rangers great Michael Young.

The two teams, each made up of celebrity players and amateurs, will slug it out for 9 innings of hard-charging, umpire-umpping, trash-talking, base-stealing, home run-hitting baseball. Come early for family fun festivities outside the ballpark and a Heroes Special Olympics All-Star Softball Game starting at 4:30 p.m. Celebrity baseball gets underway at 6:30 p.m., followed by a fireworks finale.
