Josh Bard Will be Featured in Eastern Motors Commercial

July 7-Washington, DC-Eastern Motors has decided it will expand its arsenal of DC sports figures endorsing their cars by choosing their first National, catcher Josh Bard to do ads for them. Eastern Motors is famous for their commercials featuring DC area athletes, mostly Redskins, however, this past season they expanded to hockey with ads featuring Alex Ovechkin.

"This is awesome man, to be the first baseball player they choose I really like it," said an ecstatic Josh Bard by phone from the Nationals game in Denver, his home town. "I know Elijah and Nyjer and many other guys would have been the obvious first choice but I am just so glad they chose me."

An Eastern Motors source who wanted to remain anonymous for fear that he did not want his boys to know that he knew what a blog was revealed that it was a tough decision for Eastern Motors to choose between Jordan Zimmermann or Josh Bard, but in the end they decided on Bard because he is a more established big league players and because his catcher's gear looks pretty gangsta.

The commercial will repordetly show Bard in an Escalade singing (rapping) and driving around Nationals Park.
