For the all star games of the pro leagues, does each team send their own equipment team rep to handle the uniforms, apparel, & gear for their players in the game/events?

Obviously the players aren't responsible for their own stuff. So is it a team rep from each team or a few MLB reps that communicate with each team that ensure proper sizes & all of that?

I don't think it would be to hard for team reps to send each athlete with the things they need before the leave. I don't think these guys are worried to much about luggage fees, and god forbid an athlete having to actually pack a suitcase.

I would guess the hosting teams equipment staff takes care of most of it with maybe the help of other equipment managers. No way the players travel with their uniforms and such.

I was listening to the Cubs broadcast during the final game before the Break and they were saying along with Rizzo, Bryant, Arrieta, Zobrist, etc. some of the team guys were headed over to San Diego with them. I'm assuming it's people responsible for all their gear.

My guess is that the player tells his clubhouse guy what he needs to bring. The clubby packs the bag, it gets sent to the stadium where the ASG is being held, and is there ready to go at the player's locker when he gets there.

Fun fact for everyone. Majestic still makes MLB uniforms because they have a stipulation that the uniforms must be manufactured in the USA.

In your guessed scenario that would mean the host team equipment guys unpack the gear & place it.

I wonder if there's ever any pranking between teams or even sabotage...?
