Pepsi, the official soft drink of Major League Baseball, debuted a new baseball-themed ad as part of its "Refresh" campaign during Wednesday night's "Law & Order: Criminal Intent," "Lost" and
"Scrubs."
The ad, via TBWAChiatDay, is scheduled to air twice during the Fox MLB game Saturday afternoon. It takes a look at the great pro ball players of past and present.
The
30-second spot gives props to Mickey Mantle, Ken Griffey, Jr., Jackie Robinson, Jose Reyes, old and new Yankee Stadium, Joe DiMaggio, Babe Ruth and Derek Jeter as well as others. The ad features
the song "Forever Young" performed by Will.I.Am.--Karl Greenberg
