Talking Sport with SD & The Fazman’s Post

This is Liam Hendriks. He is one of the most remarkable Australian athletes. When he pitches next month for the Boston Red Sox, he will officially play in his 14th MLB season. No Australian in the modern day has ever played in more. In 2023 he overcame cancer. A couple months later, he had a severe elbow injury that required Tommy John Surgery and stopped him from throwing for over a year. He beat that too. Now, he's currently rehabbing in the minor leagues ahead of an anticipated September 6 return. We caught up with Liam before a game in Boston and he is just as Australian as ever. As Eric Balnar writes, Liam makes a conscious effort to connect Australians to feel at home in the midst of his 18th professional season abroad.
