Mark Wahlberg is diving head-first into his Houston Astros fandom … going as far as to say he’d donate one of his thumbs to help superstar Jose Altuve get back from his injury!!
Before his big moment, Mark raved about Altuve’s teammate, Alex Bregman … calling him a good friend and his “favorite Yankee killer of all time.”
“I am an Astros fan,” he added. “Listen, I live in Nevada now, I’m a fan of real talent. And, you know what, they have an amazing team, and he has amazing talent, but he’s also an amazing person, so I’m a big fan of his, especially.”
As for Altuve — who is out indefinitely after breaking his thumb playing for Venezuela during the World Baseball Classic — Wahlberg says he’s willing to help out.
“I am also willing to donate either one of my thumbs to Jose Altuve, for sure,” Wahlberg told reporters. “So we’re all good. I’m a big fan.”
Mark wasn’t the only celeb in town for the big game — Megan Thee Stallion also came through to throw the first pitch!!
