The Brew Jays, a recreational team, invited Donaldson to play after one of the team’s players sent him a message on the team’s 200-follower-strong Instagram. And, well, he said sure. “Huge shoutout to Josh Donaldson and the get it done league, They made a beer league softball teams dreams come true and gave us a story to tell for the rest of our life,” read a statement on the team’s Instagram.

Donaldson delivered at the plate, going 4-for-4 with two home runs. Despite his offensive performance, the Brew Jays still came up short, losing 12-9.
