Who’s Playing in the MLB All-Star Celebrity Softball Game

Here Is Who’s Joining the MLB All-Star Celebrity Softball Game

Major League Baseball’s All-Star Celebrity Softball Game is back, lighting up Truist Park in Atlanta, Georgia, on July 12, 2025, and this year the blend of star power and athleticism is turning heads. Household names from Latin music and global entertainment are set to swing for the fences, continuing a tradition that injects fun, candid moments, and showmanship into the heart of MLB All-Star week.

A Roster Packed With Latin Music Stars

MLB’s All-Star Celebrity Softball Game has become known for uniting celebrities from across music, sports, and screen for five innings of light-hearted but competitive ball. In previous years, fans were treated to the likes of Daddy Yankee, Bad Bunny, Wilmer Valderrama, and Jon Secada dusting off their batting gloves. Big acts are returning for another go this year, and anticipation is soaring among Latin music fans who’ll see their favorites mixing it up with professional athletes and pop culture icons.

The confirmed lineup for this summer boasts chart-topping talent, including:

• Young Miko: Fresh from debuting her album “Att.,” the Puerto Rican rapper is making her mark both in the music charts and now on the diamond. The excitement is palpable—her crossover from music festival stages to the ballpark is a symbol of the game’s rising cultural cachet.
• Eladio Carrión: Known for the hit “H.I.M.,” Carrión returns after a previous softball appearance, trading studio time for on-field action. His repeat participation signals just how much crossover fun the event provides.
• Myke Towers: Another dynamic returnee, Towers is best known for “LALA.” He’s ready to step up to the plate with this star-studded cast.
• Tito Double P: With a banner year highlighted by collaborations with Peso Pluma, Tito steps into a celebrity lineup for the first time, adding to his growing list of achievements.
• Wisin: A true icon of reggaeton, Wisin joins several other Puerto Rican stars, underscoring the importance of Latino representation in both MLB fandom and pop culture.

Previous games have featured an impressive slate of celebrities, from musicians to actors and athletes. The latest superstar presence preserves that tradition, adding a fresh Latin flavor to this year’s squad.

The Legacy and Experience of the Celebrity Softball Game

First established in 2001 in Seattle, the All-Star Celebrity Softball Game has evolved into a marquee event for MLB fans. The game takes place the night before the popular Home Run Derby and includes a host of celebrities sharing the field with MLB legends and athletes. Not even a pandemic-sparked break in 2020 slowed its momentum. Every summer (except 2020), the game is held in the stadium scheduled for the All-Star Game—in 2025, that’s Atlanta’s Truist Park.

Each year, the event attracts a diverse crowd eager for a different kind of baseball action. Celebrities from both the American League (AL) and National League (NL) fanbases come together, marking an informal but symbolic halfway point in the MLB season. You can discover more about the event’s storied history, as well as details on team rosters and ticket info, on MLB’s site.

Star Power on the Field and On Social Media

Part of the magic of the MLB All-Star Celebrity Softball Game is watching icons from different spheres interact on and off the field, with moments often going viral on social platforms. For instance, boxer Amanda Serrano shared her excitement after playing in a previous celebrity game alongside stars like Francisco Lindor, Edwin “Sugar” Diaz, Carlos Beltran, and Daddy Yankee, sharing team dynamics and behind-the-scenes fun via her Twitter account.
