There are two players at the MLB All-Star Game from the Chicago White Sox as they prepare to suit up for the American League All-Stars. It is a very fun event for all involved as the game of baseball is celebrated. Tim Anderson and Liam Hendriks will represent the south side.
Anderson is going to be in the starting lineup for the American League squad. He is going to bat seventh and play shortstop. Having a White Sox player in the starting lineup is very special and not something that happens every year. He is more than deserving right now.
He is going to play in his second straight All-Star Game. He was a reserve in 2021 which was nice but nothing beats getting the start. In 2021, he came in to play some defensive shortstop but never came up to bat in the lineup.
Liam Hendriks will be in the bullpen waiting to pitch. He is a closer so it will be interesting to see if he comes in late in the game like he usually does. It would be so awesome to see him come in late with a lead as he did in 2021 to earn the save.
On Monday night, the Home Run Derby took place at Dodger Stadium. Ahead of that, there were lots of pictures and videos taken of the players as they mingle with others from around the league. Liam Hendriks and Tim Anderson looked amazing at these festivities.

When you see our guys talking with Mike Trout, you can’t help but smile. It gets even better when you see them getting in pictures with Carlos Rodon who has no business wearing another Major League uniform right now. That was a mistake but we get to enjoy him for these few days as well.
Aaron Judge is one of the faces of the game. The White Sox and Yankees had some intense battles early in this season which makes these pictures with Judge and Anderson even cooler. It is what makes this event so cool as they all are individualized a lot more.
There is even fun in taking pictures with the division rivals. Tim Anderson’s shots with Byron Buxton are awesome to see. The Minnesota Twins and Chicago White Sox are going to have an intense battle down the stretch but we get to forget about it for a few days here.
All in all, the All-Star Game is so much fun and the two players representing the Chicago White Sox look great at the festivities. Hopefully, they are able to help the American League pull out a big win over the National League.
