With the World Series officially underway, we’ve got baseball on the brain. As the nail-biting drama unfolds on the small screen, we got to thinking about the guys (ok, the really cute guys) who caught our attention on the big screen. We’ve picked our nine (for each inning, obvi) best hot actors turned hot baseball heroes (and sometimes vice versa) Batter up!

Justin Timberlake in “The Open Road”

So what if the JT fractured father-son road trip movie hasn’t come out yet? The picture above leaves us already wishing JT would try out for MLB (c’mon the guy can do anything)!

Remember the days of 'NSYNC when Justin Timberlake rocked a small mop of curly locks? Well you soon might be able to see them again! That’s right JT fans, the singer is growing out his hair for his upcoming role in the new film, "The Social Network." The film, which follows the rise of Facebook and the effect that it had on the site’s founders, also stars "Zombieland" actor Jesse Eisenberg.

“My hair is obviously growing out for a reason.” Justin hinted to MTV News. And while some of us may be caught off guard at the singer reverting back to his boy-band hair do, the singer insists that the movie’s director knows what he’s doing. "To be honest David Fincher’s so ridiculously genius, we're all just following his lead," JT said. "I think we want to tell the story, and I want to tell it through [Aaron] Sorkin's words and Fincher's eyes. I think Aaron did a lot of research on all of it. I don't want to speak for another actor, but I think the consensus for all of us is that we just want to make a great film."

Which look do you prefer? Do you like the retro curly throwback of “Bye Bye Bye” or does the buzz cut look a bit more “justified”?

We remember when he started out as an *NSYNC-er, and nearly fell over when he brought "Sexy Back," but now mega star Justin Timberlake has put his face out there for a different cause — to become the front man of the new Givenchy fragrance for men, Play! He recently spoke with gay and lesbian pop culture magazine, Out, about his new modeling gig and his taste in fashion.

Justin admits he isn't a cologne freak, but thinks that sometimes in order to be funky, you need to smell funky! Justin is known for everything from his MJ-like dance moves to his ever changing sexy style, which he said is inspired by his stepfather's sense of dress. He told Out, "My stepfather was one of my style icons growing up. He was a banker, and I used to love to watch the routine he would go through. He would lay out his suit and the power tie he wanted to wear the night before. I used to watch him tie his own ties in the morning before going to school. When you go through the ritual of buttoning a collar, tying a tie, spraying on a scent, and picking out the right socks — you walk out a little more confident." Read more...

The trailer for sometimes thespian and perennial pop star, Justin Timberlake's, new flick, "The Open Road," has hit the net. And although the film doesn't look groundbreaking, Justin does seem, in typical fashion, very charming.

Justin plays Carlton, the estranged son of baseball player Kyle Garrett (Jeff Bridges). The pair, along with Carlton's lady friend, Lucy (Kate Mara, pictured), embark on a road trip. The film also stars Mary Steenburgen as Justin's sick mother, who hopes to get the chance to see her husband again. Read more...

Attention Justin Timberlake fans! In case you missed it, JT held a mock press conference on his Twitter page today, in which he let fans ask him questions — any and all questions that is! Not even condiments were off-limits with one person Tweeting to him, "I MUST KNOW IF YOU LIKE MUSTARD!" He actually responded to her hasty note: "I believe mustard to be one of the most amazing condiments."

Then, of course, someone had to open up the "Twilight" can-o-worms and queried Mr. Timberlake with: "why arent u sexy like robert pattinson?" His hilarious reply: "Because God loved him more than me." In non-JT Twitter news, a Cullen vampire got "butt headed," the most popular "Idol" audition song was announced and a TV host questioned the letter "X."

As our brother blog Splash Page mentioned earlier today, Ryan Reynolds, Bradley Cooper and Justin Timberlake are the final three moving on in the hopes of becoming America's next top superhero Hal Jordan in 2011's "Green Lantern." Unfortunately, we can't sit in on the screen tests, but we're pretty sure we know how each actor (or in Justin's case singer-actor) measures up. Here's our list of the pros and cons of each would-be superhero. We'll let you decide which hunk should don the coveted power ring.

Ryan Reynolds
Pro: Ryan's already established his superhero cred as Wade Wilson in this summer's "X-Men Origins: Wolverine." Heck, he was so good producers gave him his own Deadpool spin-off set for a 2011 release.

Con: Those abs will be out of sight underneath that green suit. Sigh. Read more...

It's been one busy week for Justin Timberlake.

Our very own "Canada Day hottie" Ryan Gosling is about to share his voice with the world as he forays into the music biz music this fall. Ryan (or, "our future husband" as we like to call him around the Hollywood Crush water cooler) and his band, Dead Man's Bones, will release their album October 6.

Until then, we are biding our time by listening to the work of past Mickey Mouse Club members' albums. That's right, Crushers — Ryan Gosling got his start alongside Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears and those two guys from *NSYNC on the MMC way back when. Read more...

Pop sensation. Restauranteur. Clothing designer. Mother lover. Justin Timberlake is hoping to pad this already extensive resume with one more entry: author. The 28-year-old golf enthusiast is looking to write a book about his beloved sport, reports The New York Observer.

Literary agent David Viglian, who has represented celebs like Clay Aiken and Shannon Doherty, recently sent editors a proposal for a memoir-like work in which JT recounts his many rounds of golf and who he's teed off with. Read more...
