Affleck leaves film premier to watch baseball

Actor Ben Affleck was so nervous about the premiere of his directorial debut Gone Baby Gone he left the theatre to watch the baseball.

The 'Good Will Hunting' star, 35, slipped out of the New York screening to watch his beloved Boston Red Sox and the Cleveland Indians.

Affleck says: "I just got nervous and think that every chair creak or cough, people hate it. And when someone says that they thought the movie was good, (I think) you're lying to me!"
