Liam Hendriks and his wife Kristi splurge on a $9,000,000 mansion in the last leg of his three-year $54,000,000 contract with the Chicago White Sox
Chicago White Sox closer Liam Hendriks and his wife Kristi have completed the purchase of a Paradise Valley mansion. According to the Arizona Republic, Liam and Kristi purchased an 8,600-square-foot property last week for $9 million.
