(AUDACY) When White Sox closer Liam Hendriks conducts interviews off the field, he's pretty good about censoring himself and keeping his language appropriate for all audiences.
When mic'd up during a game while feeling the heat of the competition and doing all he can to impress his peers against the best that MLB has to offer? Not so much, as the All-Star Game on Tuesday evening showed us.

Hendriks shared a few expletive-laden comments while earning the save in the American League's 5-2 win. Upon learning what he had shared with the baseball world afterward, Hendriks explained that he didn't know his mic was live while he pitched.
"I'm sure that made for some interesting TV," he told reporters. "I hope the bleeper guy was on point."
