SEATTLE — There will be plenty of familiar faces in the 2023 MLB All-Star Game in Seattle. Even the starting pitcher!
The Arizona Diamondbacks announced Monday that pitcher Zac Gallen will start the game for the National League. Gallen has been one of the best pitchers in the league, tallying up 11 wins, a 3.04 ERA and 125 strikeouts.
The 27-year-old right-hander has been the ace for the Diamondbacks this season and a national audience will get to see him in action on Tuesday.
Gallen was originally drafted in 2016 by the St. Louis Cardinals in the third round of the draft.
Fellow D-backs teammates Corbin Carroll, Lourdes Gurriel Jr. and Geraldo Perdomo are also joining him at the game as well.
