Hamilton will do interview with Beck

For someone who knows nothing about sports (as he?s admitted several times), Glenn Beck has developed quite a little MLB superstar following. First, Albert Pujols and Tony LaRussa attended his Washington D.C. rally last year. Now, the Rangers? Josh Hamilton has decided to grant his first post-relapse interview to Beck?s internet TV show.

Seems like an odd choice: like if Randy Moss announced his NFL comeback on the Rachel Maddow Show. But anyway ?

Beck previewed the interview by speaking with Pastor James Robison, who serves as part of the famed baseball player?s spiritual support system. The well-known faith leader will interview Hamilton while filling in for Beck as host of GBTV Thursday night.

For many, despite his ongoing struggles, Hamilton has been an inspiration. ?He has been called the number one recovering drug addict in America,? Beck explained, referring to Hamilton.

I?m not sure if Beck still uses his chalkboard ? I?ve never seen his new show ? but if he does, how awesome would it be to see Hamilton up there diagramming hitting strategies? The chat will be on Wednesday, and it will be live on GBTV ? Beck?s pay-per-view internet and radio channel.

In announcing the interview this morning, Beck said that, in addition to living near Hamilton in the Dallas area, he and his wife were touched by his story of addiction and recovery.
