Homer at the Bat turns 25 this week. Fox has a new mockumentary on Sunday:

It’s hard to believe that the classic Simpsons premiered 25 years ago episode “Homer at the Bat” this past February. The softball episode with many baseball references and guest voices remains one of the best episodes in its 600+ episode history.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary, and create a bit of synergy for Fox’s World Series coverage, there will be a mockumentary about the episode featuring characters from the show as well as people in real life. The episode is set to premiere Sunday afternoon either at 3 PM ET or 4:30 PM ET depending on when you have an early or late afternoon NFL game.

In this mockumentary, directed by Morgan Spurlock, is a satire of Ken Burns’ Baseball documentaries all about Homer being the hero of his team. Eight of the nine ringers will take part in the mockumentary to tell their “experiences” playing softball. And in addition to interviews with Homer, Comic Book Guy, Apu and Chief Wiggum (in animation), guests will include Aaron Judge, Nick Offerman, Russell Brand, George Will, Tim Gunn, Dr. Oz, Bob Costas, Joe Buck, Bob Uecker and Charissa Thompson (in live-action).
This was always one of my favorite episodes.
