Ben Affleck made sure he can support his beloved Boston Red Sox in the baseball World Series - by checking out his wife's Broadway debut in advance.

Previews for Jennifer Garner's run in Cyrano De Bergerac began on Friday (19Oct07), and Affleck has already been to see his wife onstage - making sure he shows her his support before cheering on the Red Sox, who begin their chase for the World Series at home on Wednesday night (24Oct07).

Garner's new play, which also stars Kevin Kline, officially opens on 1 November (07), when the Red Sox's best-of-seven series with the Colorado Rockies is expected to reach fever pitch.

Affleck says, "Fortunately for me, I've already been to see Jennifer on Broadway, so there's not really a conflict. I'm not required to go see that again."

The movie star/director admits he's lucky to be married to a woman who respects his Red Sox interests: "She's a very big Red Sox fan so she'll be I'm sure running back during the intermission checking the score."
