Batter Up!

Eastbound and Down just got hotter, wetter and a lot, lot better. Ken Marino is going to play a fellow washed up big leaguer this season on Eastbound and Down this season.

The news coming off the set (I sound like I work at Deadline) is that Marino will play a hard partying jock much like Kenny Powers. It should sufficiently replace his bromance lost after the tragic death of Shane, played by Jason Sudekis.

I wasn’t really looking forward to another season after the steady decline after Season One but they reeled me back in with Marino.

Here’s hoping we see something as wonderful as this.
