C.J. Wilson shows up at Angel Stadium for Supercross action
On Saturday night, Los Angeles Angels left-hander C.J. Wilson took a break from hitting the gym to return to Angel Stadium...for some Supercross action.
Wilson, an avid motor sports enthusiast, paid a visit to the FS1 booth for the night's festivities, which transformed the Big A from a dormant baseball field into a lively Supercross course.

Naturally, he had to comment on the field's changes by cracking a joke:
Prior to the night's action getting underway, Wilson hit the booth for some on-camera time with FOX Sports' Jamie Little and the FS1 crew:

A few hours before Supercross took over the Stadium, Jon Heyman reported on the ever-incessant trade rumors regarding Wilson:
C.J. will earn $20 million in 2016 in the final year of his contract with the Halos, which is most likely a pretty significant obstacle to finding a trade package agreeable with their demands.
