Titled GOATbusters, the DirecTV commercial features four of baseball’s most prominent names as they go up against a supersized version of the Cincinnati Reds mascot, Mr Redlegs.

Dressed in vintage baseball uniforms equipped with Ghostbusters-style equipment, the four men come together to defeat the giant creature.

In a separate, shorter commercial, the baseball players unite in GOATbusters garb once more.

“Are you haunted by your cable service?” Randy Johnson questions, pointing to the camera.

Alex Rodriguez chimes in: “Have you noticed strange, frightening fees on your monthly bill?”

“Do you experience feelings of dread when you pass by your cable box?” asks Ken Griffey Jr.

David Ortiz adds: “If the answer is yes…”

The four men then say in unison: “Who you gonna call?”
