Clay Matthews and Davante Adams step up for Green & Gold softball game

GRAND CHUTE, Wis. (CBS 58) -- With Jordy Nelson going to the Oakland Raiders someone needed to step up for the Green & Gold Charity Softball Game. Jordy will be replaced by two Packers players - Clay Matthews and Davante Adams. 

The softball game at Fox Cities Stadium is scheduled for Saturday, June 2. 

Clay and Davante will be the captains and instead of a traditional offense versus defense, the captains will draft their squads from the full roster.

A Home Run Derby happens at 11 a.m. and the game starts just after noon.

If you are interested in attending the game, tickets are $29 for bleacher seats and $14 for grass seats.

The game will benefit Young Life, a charity close to Jordy Nelson.
