Twilight Stars Face off Against Saints in Charity Baseball

Did you think vampire baseball was just for the movie? Well think again. Some of the stars from the Twilight movies will play baseball against some members of the New Orleans Saints in a charity game to benefit earthquake relief efforts in Haiti.

Peter Facinelli who plays Carlisle Cullen in the films will lead a team that includes his costars Chaske Spencer, Alex Meraz and Tyson Houseman. The competing team includes professional athletes Kyle Eckel and Lynell Hamilton of the New Orleans Saints.

The event will be held on March 20 as part of Celebrity Vampire Baseball in New Orleans. Proceeds from the event will benefit the American Red Cross, Hope for Haiti Now and local organizations. The event will also include a blood drive hosted by The Blood Center.
