Brad Pitt is star athlete

15th July 2011

(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Brad Pitt could have been a baseball star if his acting career had stalled, according to his co-star.

The Hollywood hunk plays a baseball manager in sports movie Moneyball, which is the true story of an underdog team punching above their weight. And one of the film's stars, former baseball player Casey Bond, believes Brad could have been a star athlete.

"He's got some skill," said Casey to E! Online. "He might have missed his calling in baseball I guess. If acting didn't work out he's pretty good... I think that he's got that in his back pocket if anything.

"He was out there a couple days and he took batting practice with us and stuff, threw the baseball around. He was very much involved with all aspects of the baseball side of the movie as well."

Casey added he was delighted that Brad starred in the movie. Not only did the Hollywood star give him tips on how to act, he also brought his partner, Angelina Jolie, to set.

"Angelina and the kids came to set one day and she hung out with everyone too," Casey added. "Down to earth. Very nice people." (C) Cover Media
