SEATTLE — The best baseball players in the world will be taking the field Tuesday night in Seattle, as the 2023 Major League Baseball (MLB) All-Star Game will take place at T-Mobile Park in SODO.
The Midsummer Classic is one of the richest traditions in the sport, and this year's game will be the 93rd edition.
Whether heading into the city for the game or kicking back and watching elsewhere, here's everything you need to know about Seattle's third MLB All-Star Game.
When is the 2023 MLB All-Star Game?
The first pitch of the game is scheduled for 5 p.m. PT on Tuesday at T-Mobile Park.
Are tickets still available for the MLB All-Star Game?
There are still some available, but be prepared to part with a sizable sum of money. The cheapest ticket currently available is $270 for standing-room-only access, which does not come with an assigned seat.
Where can I park for the All-Star Game at T-Mobile Park?
Parking is limited at the Mariners Parking Garage across the street from T-Mobile Park, and surrounding lots operated by third-party vendors likely will have increased prices for the game.
Use this link for the Mariners' transportation guide in getting to T-Mobile Park.
Who is on the American League and National League All-Star teams?
The starting position players for each team are chosen through a virtual fan vote, with all pitchers and reserves on each roster chosen through a player ballot. Three Mariners are representing the American League: Outfielder Julio Rodriguez and pitchers Luis Castillo and George Kirby.
