The 2023 season hasn’t gone according to plan for the New York Mets but there is plenty of time to reflect on that in the coming days. Today is a day to celebrate the best of baseball as the 2023 All-Star Game is set to be played tonight in Seattle. First pitch is scheduled for just after 8:00 p.m. at T-Mobile Park and will be televised nationally on FOX.
The American League will send New York Yankees’ ace Gerrit Cole (9-2, 2.85 ERA) to the mound as their starter. Cole, who is making his sixth All-Star appearance, will be making his first start in the Midsummer classic. The National League will counter with Arizona Diamondbacks’ righty Zac Gallen (11-3, 3.04 ERA), who will be making his first All-Star appearance and has played a big part in Arizona’s strong first half.
