If you are a baseball fan, you have probably seen a New Era cap commercial featuring Alec Baldwin. The obnoxious Yankees fan is the star of the new commercial, which will air during the Red Sox-Yankees series opener. The commercial is part a series that celebrates the rivalry between Red Sox fans and Yankees fans. This video shows behind-the scenes footage from the commercial shoot.
It’s no surprise that Baldwin loves Buffalo businesses. New Era’s commercial features the rivalry between Red Sox teams and Yankees teams. Baldwin visited Wegmans with mom. The ad will air on regional telecasts of Yankees-Red Sox games. The Brooklyn Brothers will shoot the campaign and it will air on regional telecasts.
John Krasinski is also featured in the ad. They have a fierce rivalry. In the second commercial, “One Hitter”, Bill Baldwin sneaks into Krasinski’s apartment and punches the latter in the face to celebrate the Red Sox’ win over the Yankees. Krasinski, however, fled the apartment in the sixth innings and was unable catch the ball.
