PHOTOS: Philip Rivers and the Chargers are playing softball in disguise

Kirby Lee / Rivers

Several San Diego Chargers have been secretly playing softball for a local team.

Well, not so secretly any more.

A reader of Bolts from the Blue sent in photographic evidence of quarterback Philip Rivers, running back Danny Woodhead and safety Eric Weddle in costume while playing.

Here's Rivers at the plate, wearing high socks, short shorts and a wig.

Here are Weddle and Woodhead. Their Chargers uniform numbers don't give them away at all.

In a shocking twist, the team not stacked with NFL ringers actually beat the Chargers, handing the incognito squad its first loss of the season.

You know who could really use these guys? The Padres.
