We are officially into the second half of the baseball season, with plenty of games in the books, and it feels great to be BACK! This episode is packed with Takeaways and Quirkjians, led by the Boston Red Sox. Tim Kurkjian is still trying to figure out exactly what’s happening with this team — because somehow, the story looks completely different than it did just three weeks ago. James Wood and the Nationals/Athletics series have us scratching our heads, while Victor Martinez and Logan Webb also make their way into this week’s Quirkjians. For On This Date in Baseball History, we take a look back at Gaylord Perry and Hank Aaron. Jeff brings up an interesting question about Hank Aaron’s final home run that you may have wondered about too. Stephen Strasburg shares a birthday with our friend and former guest Dan Shaughnessy, and Tim shares a story from a recent speech Dan gave that had him laughing so hard he was nearly on the floor. Which makes us wonder… didn’t Tim Kurkjian already know every baseball story ever told? Turns out, not this one! We also spin the Wheel of Kurkjian, so be sure to send in your suggestions on our website. Finally, Team Tim is becoming more like Team Shannon, thanks to a genius idea from a member of our family.

Is "Cultural Christianity" a bridge to the gospel — or a counterfeit that replaces it? In this episode, Dr. James Spencer (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) and Dr. Ashish Varma respond to James Wood's widely-discussed First Things article, In Defense of Cultural Christianity. Together they unpack why calling a civilisation "Christian" when Christ is not its governing authority is not just imprecise — it's theologically catastrophic. From the Christendom narrative and American civil religion to the habituation of virtue, abortion statistics, and a profound meditation on Pentecost in Acts 2, this episode models what serious Christian thinking looks like when it refuses to foreclose on the full authority of Jesus Christ too soon. If you've wrestled with Christian nationalism, the "good, true, and beautiful" in culture, or what it means to vote as a follower of Jesus, this conversation is essential listening. Key Takeaways: Why "a culture influenced by Christianity" is an insufficient — and potentially dangerous — definition of "Christian culture" The concept of "inappropriate foreclosure": closing off our understanding of the good too soon and using that partial view as if it were complete How Robert Bellah's concept of American civil religion explains why Christian language gets co-opted by government without actually conforming people to Christ Why the Book of Acts — specifically Pentecost and the Gentile inclusion — fundamentally disrupts any vision of Christianity as a singular cultural program The Light Bright metaphor: God is the light source; culture is the peg pattern. Christians must point people behind the pegs to the light itself Why policy-driven virtue formation (habituation) has measurable real-world limits — and what the abortion statistics during different administrations actually reveal How Dr. Varma's personal experiences — from campus life on 9/11 to being randomly selected in airports — illustrate why Wood's "civilisational benefit" narrative forecloses on the experiences of many believers Get early access and a bonus with a Patreon membership.

Arizona Diamondbacks ace Zac Gallen has officially been placed on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation. Corey Pieper breaks down a massive pre-All-Star break injury wave, highly anticipated star activations, the weekly Waiver Wire segment, and the FanDuel Bet of the Day. The pre-break injury report is absolutely devastating for fantasy rosters as Kyle Harrison hits the injured list with a forearm issue prompting Robert Gasser's recall, Matt McLain lands on the shelf with a strained left calf, and Mike Yastrzemski goes to the 10-day injured list with left elbow inflammation. Additionally, American League All-Star Nick Kurtz lands on the 10-day injured list with a right thumb capsule sprain, Nick Lodolo hits the injured list with a blister, Blaze Alexander suffers a hand fracture, and Emerson Hancock was removed from his outing after taking a line drive. Roster managers must also navigate Jacob deGrom missing his next start, Shohei Ohtani skipping a start with left knee inflammation, Bo Bichette sitting out all weekend, and Jacob Misiorowski having his start skipped for developmental inning management, though fantasy managers receive major boosts with Wyatt Langford, Jeremy Pena, Ryan Jeffers, Vinnie Pasquantino, and Munetaka Murakami all activated from the injured list, alongside Edwin Diaz launching a rehab assignment and Emiliano Teodo making his MLB debut. Daily performance metrics highlight a loaded group of standouts as Sean Burke, Hunter Greene, Tristan Peters, Esmerlyn Valdez, Jake Bauers, Gage Jump, Kyle Karros, Tyler Mahle, James Wood, Cam Schlittler, Cristopher Sanchez, Vladimir Guerrero Jr., James McCann, Manny Machado, Paul Skenes, Lane Thomas, Gunnar Henderson, Alex Bregman, Zach Thornton, Joey Cantillo, Brayan Rocchio, Noah Schultz, Taj Bradley, Brandon Nimmo, Trevor McDonald, and Kevin Gausman all deliver big games, while Parker Messick battles Sandy Alcantara and Zack Wheeler duels Tarik Skubal. Conversely, a handful of prominent options flatlined, with Shea Langeliers posting a three-strikeout collar, Carson Benge going 0-for-4 with three punchouts, Otto Lopez finishing 0-for-5 with four strikeouts, and Braxton Ashcraft, Willy Adames, Freddy Peralta, Trey Yesavage, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Spencer Torkelson, Ian Seymour, and JT Ginn all struggling into the duds section. Our weekly Waiver Wire segment provides direct tactical targets to optimize your active roster heading into the midsummer break, isolating top priority free agents who can fortify your categories for the second-half push.

From 07/08 Hour 4: Paul Toboni joins The Sports Junkies to break down James Wood's recent success.
It was just supposed to be a regular, full-slate Tuesday in the baseball world. With some really good matchups, ace starters on the mound, and possible historic moments on the horizon, nobody could've expected the madness that would ensue and give us possibly the best day of MLB action we've had all season long. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman recap the wild Tuesday night that featured Shohei Ohtani hitting his 300th career home run, Tyler Tolbert tying a major league record for most hits in consecutive at-bats and Ryan O'Hearn having a three-home-run game. They also talk about Jackson Chourio having some fun in the Milwaukee Brewers' game and James Wood continuing his under-the-radar monster season for the Washington Nationals. Later in the show, Jake and Jordan get into the newest names added as replacements for the 2026 MLB All-Star Game and Ben Rice joining the still-curious field for the Home Run Derby.

Tobi Altizer & Grant Paulsen were at Nats Park all weekend and breakdown what went wrong in the battle for Wild Card positioning with a surging Pittsburgh team. Then, in one of the surprises of the season so far, the Nationals DFA'd former top prospect Robert Hassell III. Tobi & Grant make sense of why the Nats felt this was the move to make. Plus, CJ Abrams and James Wood officially were named to the 2026 MLB All-Star Game roster for the National League. What's the path for a couple more candidates from the Nats to make the team? And, hear from James Wood as he joined Grant & Danny in studio on 106.7 The Fan in DC.
¡Vaya jornada de drama, palizas y remontadas en las Grandes Ligas! En este video te traemos los momentos más impactantes de la acción de la MLB, con los Yankees de Nueva York llevándose los reflectores. El campocorto panameño José Caballero encendió la ofensiva de los Yankees conectando dos descomunales jonrones, mientras que desde el montículo, Cam Schlittler dictó una auténtica cátedra de pitcheo para maniatar a la ofensiva de los Rays de Tampa Bay, guiando a Nueva York a un triunfo contundente. Dodgers históricos: Daulton Rushing se vistió de héroe con un hit de oro en la entrada 12 para dejar en el terreno a los Rockies. ¡Los Dodgers son el primer equipo en llegar a las 60 victorias! Ataque implacable de los Royals: Kansas City castigó con todo a Cristopher Sánchez, anotando en absolutamente todos los innings para aplastar 15-1 a los Phillies. Salvador Pérez aportó a la fiesta con un cuadrangular. Remontada en Milwaukee: Los Cerveceros vinieron de atrás ante los Cardenales gracias a la velocidad y los batazos oportunos de David Hamilton y Brice Turang. Poder de James Wood: Los Nacionales resistieron la respuesta de los Astros gracias a un salvaje Grand Slam de James Wood que selló el triunfo de Washington. Destacados de la semana: Yordan Álvarez y Otto López se llevan los honores como los Jugadores de la Semana tras sus brutales actuaciones. Drama en extrainnings: En un duelo divisional de alta tensión, un jonrón de Juan Soto y un doble clave de Luis Torrens le dieron la victoria a los Mets sobre los Bravos en 10 entradas. Gigantes de poder: Heliot Ramos descargó dos cuadrangulares para respaldar la joya de pitcheo de Landen Roupp en el triunfo de San Francisco ante los Blue Jays. Blanqueada en Arizona: Brandon Pfaadt brilló intensamente desde la lomita para que los Dbacks colgaran los nueve ceros ante los Padres de San Diego.Conviértete en un supporter de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/con-las-bases-llenas-podcast-de-beisbol--2742086/support.
The New York Yankees rotation took a massive hit as left-hander Carlos Rodón was placed on the injured list with severe elbow inflammation, projecting an absence that will stretch into mid-August. Corey Pieper breaks down a devastating AL East injury timeline, shifting league discipline, crucial backend bullpen targets, and the FanDuel Bet of the Day. The transaction wire is hyperactive heading into the All-Star break as Cade Cavalli's suspension has officially been reduced to 5 games on appeal, allowing him to begin serving his time immediately. Meanwhile, Patrick Sandoval has been fully reinstated from the injured list, and George Springer has returned to the team from family medical leave, though he remained out of the starting lineup in his first game back. Roster managers must track a highly volatile day of performances that featured Tyler Tolbert exploding for a perfect 5-for-5 game with a home run, while modern juggernauts Shohei Ohtani and Matt Olson continued their steady power surges, alongside dynamic offensive showings from James Wood, Curtis Mead, CJ Abrams, Jose Caballero, Juan Soto, and Heliot Ramos. On the mound, Cam Schlittler delivered a masterful 8-inning, 8-strikeout gem, Landen Roupp turned in an 8-inning showcase of his own, and Brandon Pfaadt tossed 5 scoreless frames. Conversely, it was a historical implosion for frontline starters: Cristopher Sanchez collapsed for 9 earned runs in just 3.1 innings, Mike Burrows surrendered 10 total runs, and veteran arms Kevin Gausman and Walker Buehler were hammered for a combined 11 earned runs. Offensively, Paul Goldschmidt, Cody Bellinger, and Jonathan Aranda bottomed out with matching, empty 0-for-4, 3-strikeout nights. The Bullpen Report provides essential waiver-wire clarity, highlighting Tyler Wells ramping up in Baltimore, Jacob Webb securing the most recent save for the Cubs, and Emilio Pagan making his return to Cincinnati. We also review a rough outing for Raisel Iglesias and why Yankees high-leverage option Luke Weaver needs to be universally owned right now.

In this July wrap up edition of the public law podcast, Jasveer Randhawa is joined by HSF Kramer partners Nusrat Zar and James Wood. They start with an update on ECHR and proportionality, examining recent developments in A1P1 property rights, following the decisions in Dana Astra and BYL. The discussion then turns to practical takeaways for those advising on contentious regulatory matters, including the High Court's refusal of permission to challenge a late application in Intelligent Land Investments Group, and the evidential threshold required when seeking to restrain the publication of public authority decisions in Euro Car Parks Ltd and South East Water. They also examine the courts' evolving approach where regulators overstep, as illustrated by R (University of Sussex) v Office for Students, alongside recent High Court guidance on the correct test to be applied in energy price control appeals. To conclude, they flag the Divisional Court's decision on the lawfulness of facial recognition technology and the useful lessons it holds for the future use of AI by public authorities.

Episode 253, FULL SHOW -- It was an eventful final road series before the All-Star Break, but the Nationals came out with yet another series win, taking the final two of the three game series at historic Fenway Park against a hot Red Sox team. Tobi Alitzer & Grant Paulsen look back at a series that featured a spectacular career best performance from Cade Cavalli, James Wood breaking out of his recent slump in a big way, and another quality performance from the young LHP Andrew Alvarez. Tobi & Grant also discuss the events that led to a benches clearing event involving Cade Cavalli and Red Sox 1st Baseman Willson Contreras. And the Nats will have two representatives in the MLB Futures Game at All-Star Week. Has Eli Willits dominant early career accelerated his timeline toward the big leagues?
Episode 632: Reeling from the breaking news that Jaylen Brown has just been traded, Jared, Steve, Coley and Tyler sit down to recap another lackluster series from the Boston Red Sox. Losing two out of three has become par for the course for this year's Red Sox team — as have benches-clearing incidents. This time, it features Cade Cavalli yelling a questionable comment at Willson Contreras after an earlier brush-by. The guys break down Contreras' repeat offender status in these situations, react to his Instagram activity after being ejected, and go in on Cade Cavalli. Coley and the crew also gush over James Wood's swing at Fenway, Tyler somehow slides Triston Casas into the conversation, and Jared asks Steve a loaded question about his Door Dash rehabilitation. Finally, they preview what could be a season-defining series against the lowly Los Angeles California of Anaheim Angels. 00:00:00 - Jaylen Brown Traded 00:05:38 - Red Sox Lose Two Out of Three | Talkin' Hockey 00:07:02 - The Willson Contreras - Cade Cavalli Incident 00:24:07 - Nate Eaton vs. Miles Mikolas 00:42:16 - James Wood, What Could Have Been… 00:40:57 - Triston Casas Update 00:42:10 - Did Steve Fill his Door Dash Fix? | Tyler's Weight-Loss Journey 00:52:16 - Retired Red Sox Players, Just Like Us 00:54:23 - Connelly Early to the IL 01:09:53 - Payton Tolle Recap 01:17:20 - Sunday 9:30 PM Game?!?! 01:14:20 - We're Going to All-Star Week 01:22:40 - Relief Pitcher Roulette 01:32:46 - Stop and Shop 01:35:10 - Weather Lookaheah 01:40:23 - Prediction Time 01:43:55 - Final Thoughts SECTION 10 MERCH IS HERE: https://section10merch.com/ Trade $20 Get $20 on Kalshi - https://app.kalshi.com/1r91/Section10 Sign Up For Our Patreon for more Section 10 Content! https://www.patreon.com/cw/section10podcast Get Blue Moon Non-Alcoholic Belgian White Belgian-Style Wheat Brew delivered by visiting http://get.bluemoonbeer.com/JARED for delivery options Find out why Nutrafol is the best-selling hair growth supplement brand.

And the Nats will have two representatives in the MLB Futures Game at All-Star Week. Has Eli Willits dominant early career accelerated his timeline toward the big leagues?
Send us Fan MailIf you only read what you know you'll agree with, how will you learn? But if you read something from another theological tradition, do you risk weakening your faith? In this episode, James Wood and Joseph Minich explore the importance of reading widely across Christian traditions, the role of ecumenism, and how to deepen your understanding within one's own tradition while remaining open to others. They discuss the value of tradition, truth, and the future of the church in a divided world.—Get 30% of the Baker Book of the Month, The Pursuit of Character: Recovering the Virtues, by going to: http://bakerbookhouse.com/pages/mere-fidelityRegister for Beeson Divinity School's 2026 Preaching Conference, July 14-16 in Birmingham, Alabama: https://www.samford.edu/beeson-divinity/preaching-institute/preaching-conference?utm_source=Mere+Orthodoxy&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=Preaching+Conference+2026
James Wood does the podcast and then goes out and hits a home run. It's science. It happened the last time Bradfo caught up with the Nationals' star, and it repeated once again with this latest sit-down. Before Wood hit his 441-foot blast to lead off his latest game, he chopped it up with Bradfo to talk about the Ted Williams seat, how the 23-year-old's life has changed since he first jumped on BIB and what advice he would give players headed to the All-Star Game for the first time. Bradfo also talks with one of the game's best personalities, Nasim Nunez, who offers up next-level talk regarding his quest to steal 80 bases.
Happy Tuesday! Last night, we had a Black Baseball Mixtape Instant Classic between the Twins and Astros: Cam Smith hit 2 home runs, Taylor Trammell hit his 100th career home run, Josh Bell hit a home run, and so did Royce Lewis. It was five home runs from four different players with African-American heritage, and I believe that is a single-game record this season. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Not only that, James Wood hit number 21 last night at Fenway, the Cubs walked it off against Mason Miller, and Shohei hit a ball that hasn't landed yet. Also, we recorded a brand-new live podcast last night, and I have to ask: Can you truly love a team and hate their owner? Angels and A's fans, I'm looking at you.
Who looks like who? Jeff had quite the concert-going experience this week. The White Sox scored 10 runs in a single inning—how often are we seeing that in today's pitching era? And of course, the Phillies found another way to keep things interesting until the ninth inning. Dansby Swanson, Kyle Schwarber, and Dylan Cease headline this week's Quirkjians. Plus, James Wood becomes the subject of a conversation thanks to a comparison to Ted Williams... sort of. We'll explain. On This Date in Baseball History, we look back at Craig Biggio's incredible hit-by-pitch total, two cycles in the same week, and why Harmon Killebrew's name is as memorable as his career. Oh, and yes—Moonlight Graham was a real player. Inspired by Moonlight Graham, Tim brings us a special Team Tim. You may not have heard this one on the show before, but you might remember it from his Twitter a few years ago. Then we spin the Wheel of Kurkjian for more fascinating stories and even a special guest appearance. Thanks for listening and as always, thanks for being a part of our family!

The Nats will play their 81st game of the season next week, and they're still hovering around .500! In this week's Best of Nationals, we look at their consistent play, James Wood getting no All-Star love, the potential of a CJ Abrams trade, and how much credit Mike Rizzo deserves for this year's run.
