The stars will be out during MLB All-Star weekend in Seattle, and that’s not limited to just baseball’s biggest talents.
The 2023 MLB celebrity softball game comes to T-Mobile Park on Saturday night, following the Futures Game. Last year’s game included 28 runs in five innings and some viral moments from “Breaking Bad” actor Bryan Cranston. What will Seattle have in store?
Some familiar faces will be back, including social media star JoJo Siwa, while even some NBA standouts will get in on the action as Donovan Mitchell and Zach LaVine test their skills. Fans are in for a treat with Mariners great Felix Hernandez back in town and on the roster for the game as well.
All-Star weekend has something for everyone, and the celebrity softball game stands out as the most unique event with some unlikely celebrities trying their hand on the diamond.

MLB celebrity softball game live updates, highlights
(All times Eastern)
10:47 p.m. — It’s 13-5 after another Team Finch home run.
10:45 p.m. — Ryan Howard hits a mammoth home run to cut the deficit to 10. He’s 2-for-2 with two home runs and looks like he’s in great shape. Anyone need a DH?
10:42 p.m. — Team Finch opens the third inning with a 13-2 deficit and immediately hits into the first out of the inning. Not great.
10:34 p.m. — Back-to-back home runs! Mark Rober and JP Saxe both clear the wall to pad Team Felix’s lead.
10:30 p.m. — What an inning for Team Felix! Team Finch gets a couple hits, including a single from LaVine, but manages two quick outs to post a rare scoreless frame.
10:25 p.m. — It’s all gone downhill for Team Finch. Not only did Team Felix score six runs in the bottom of the first, but JoJo Siwa softly grounded out to lead off the second inning.
10:19 p.m. — Runs, runs, and more runs. Trey Griffey, son of Ken, hits one past Zach LaVine that goes to the wall and scores two runs. Team Felix has put four on the board in the first.
10:14 p.m. — Felix Hernandez laces a single to left field!
10:12 p.m. — King Felix hits a batter, but in this game that doesn’t mean anything. He gets the third out and escapes with a 2-0 deficit in what will be a high-scoring affair.
10:09 p.m. — Some rough defense so far… but that’s no surprise. A Yandel single (or error by the infielder) scores Jennie Finch to make it 2-0, Team Finch.
10:07 p.m. — Nothing like a Ryan Howard home run, even if it’s an inside-the-parker.

9:52 p.m. — Zach LaVine looks pretty good in teal. He’ll be joined by Donovan Mitchell as NBA stars showing off their softball skills.
