Will Ferrell stopped by the bullpen to chat with #Dbacks legend Randy Johnson.

And here comes Will Ferrell onto the field. He's giving fist bumps to fans down the line as he walks in from left field.

All things considered, a tepid welcome at SRF for Will Ferrell. Hasn't been announced yet though
— Zach Buchanan (@azc_zachb) March 12, 2015
A whole slew of Dbacks pitchers are following him into the dugout from the bullpen.

Triple to left. Will Ferrell was apparently playing an extreme shift, guarding the line, and Ivan De Jesus Jr. shot it into the gap.

Anyone recognize the 6'10" cameraman shooting Will Ferrell? #FerrellTakesTheField pic.twitter.com/PXFxKpoOUl

Very next batter lines a single to center and takes 2nd on Will Ferrell's arm. #Dbacks
— Steve Gilbert (@SteveGilbertMLB) March 12, 2015
A 3rd ball now hit to Will Ferrell in left field. This one goes for a double. #Dbacks
— Steve Gilbert (@SteveGilbertMLB) March 12, 2015
Poor J.C. Ramirez is going to have two doubles and a triple on his line when all three were probably singles with a normal left fielder
— Zach Buchanan (@azc_zachb) March 12, 2015
*insert Mark Trumbo joke here*

As he walks off the field, Will Ferrell pauses to thank his favorite #Dbacks section. #FerrellTakesTheField pic.twitter.com/ugy10hlzd5

The jape continues, with Ferrell now playing for the Reds, and moving on later tonight to appear for the Giants, White Sox, Dodgers and Padres.
