Shaquille O'Neil has had many nicknames in his professional life, from the Big Aristotle to the Big Shaqtus, the Big Shamrock to Shaqachusetts. Now, baseball fans can add DJ Diesel to the list, as the Big Diesel showed his party persona at the MLB All-Star Week's Legends & Celebrity's Game on Sunday night at Nationals Park.
Interestingly enough, Shaq decided to wear a Redskins shirt for the event, giving love to the local NFL team. The love did not go unnoticed by D.C. sports media and fans:
