Stephen Colbert To Be Given Control Of @MLB For 24 Hours

If you follow the Major League Baseball’s official Twitter account, be prepared for some off-topic tweeting in the next little while: Stephen Colbert has just been granted 24 hours access to the League’s Twitter account. As Colbert would say, you’re welcome.

Colbert (@stephenathome) and the MLB (@MLB) faced off in the Beat the Streak contest this week, in which fans are encouraged to pick one player every day who they think will get at least one hit.
