Early Life
Lillibridge was born in the deepest caverns of ancient mesopotamia. When he was five years old he mastered the art of natural pwning through rightfield. His dad, the famous god Marduk gave him the power of ultimate invincibility, giving him the force to withstand glass.

For One thousand Years he laid dormant until the white sox discovered his frozen body in the jungles of Mexico.
Baseball career
Lillibridge played for the University of Washington for three seasons, where he was named to the All-Pac 10 Conference Team for three straight seasons, before being drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 4th round (121st overall) of the 2005 amateur entry draft.
On January 17, 2007 he was traded by the Pirates with Mike González to the Braves for Adam LaRoche and Jamie Romak.
Lillibridge began the 2008 season in Triple-A for the Richmond Braves. He played 19 games and batted .195 with one home run before his contract was purchased on April 26, 2008. He made his major league debut on that same day against the New York Mets and had four at bats and struck out three times. He doubled for his first major league hit on June 25, 2008 at Toronto.
On July 12, 2008 in a game against the San Diego Padres at PETCO Park, Lillibridge hit his first major league home run against relief pitcher Joe Thatcher.
On December 4, 2008, he was traded along with C Tyler Flowers, 3B Jon Gilmore and P Santos Rodriguez to the White Sox for P Javier Vázquez and P Boone Logan.[1]
