The latest round of voting for the 2026 MLB All-Star Game was recently released, and while Shohei Ohtani unsurprisingly leads all players in votes, there is someone on the American League side who is just 300,000 votes away from matching the Los Angeles Dodgers superstar. The shocking part is that it's not Aaron Judge or Yordan Alvarez, but rather Toronto Blue Jays second baseman Ernie Clement. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss the sudden surge in support for the standout player from the Blue Jays' World Series run last season and why Ernie Clement is garnering so much fan support. They then take a look at another second baseman making waves: Jazz Chisholm Jr., who was caught playing the field with a lollipop in his mouth, drawing the ire of manager Aaron Boone. Later, Jake and Jordan are joined by Miami Marlins play-by-play broadcaster Jack McMullen to discuss the Tartan Army's invasion of Miami, what the experience was like during games and a couple of players who should be headed to the Midsummer Classic in Philadelphia. The guys then wrap up the show by discussing the disappointing press conference held by San Francisco Giants President of Baseball Operations Buster Posey, recapping the College World Series championship game and highlighting a wild matchup between the Philadelphia Phillies and Washington Nationals. 1:35 - The Opener: Surprising All-Star Game voting update 9:56 - Jazz Chisholm Jr. & the lollipop 19:35 - Jack McMullen joins the show 45:05 - We Need To Talk About: Buster Posey press conference 1:01:02 - College World Series recap 1:06:36 - Wild game in Washington Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:

Toronto drops two of three against New York and falling four games below .500 at 34-38.

The 2026 MLB All-Star Game is set to take place next month in Philadelphia, and while fan voting ballots have officially dropped, it's time to start thinking about who you might place on the American and National League squads. While there are some obvious names to make the team—looking at you, Shohei Ohtani and Yordan Alvarez—fans will have to make a few difficult decisions about who else will get their vote. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman break down both sides of the ballot and give their opinions on who they think should be voted in, including who might be the top vote-getter on the AL side with Aaron Judge set to miss the game. They also try to figure out how many players from the Philadelphia Phillies will represent their club with the game being hosted in the City of Brotherly Love. Later, Jake and Jordan discuss their recent trips to the ballpark, where they saw Paul Skenes take on the Los Angeles Dodgers, as well as his side quest to hang out with some little leaguers, and Gerrit Cole do something he hadn't done since 2022 against the Cleveland Guardians. They then talk about the incredible debut from Chicago White Sox prospect Braden Montgomery and look at the crazy numbers coming out of Sacramento A's and Milwaukee Brewers games in Las Vegas. 1:19 - The Opener: All-Star Game ballots released 4:34 - Who should make the AL squad? 18:25 - Who should make the NL squad? 37:15 - Field Report: Skenes on and off the field 47:35 - Cole against Cleveland 55:03 - Around The League: Montgomery's memorable debut 1:03:58 - Slugfest in Las Vegas Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
Bump and Stacy try to answer some of the biggest questions surrounding the Seahawks as they start minicamp, including how Brian Fleury’s offense will look in his first year as offensive coordinator, they give you their thoughts on the NBA Finals and Pat McAfee’s future with ESPN in Headline Rewrites, they look back on last night’s Mariners’ win over the Orioles, and they break down which players could represent the Mariners in the 2026 MLB All-Star Game.
Are you concerned about Paul Skenes? The Pirates ace starts tonight against the Dodgers and he has not been his dominant self in his last few outings. How much do his numbers match up with what he has done in his first few seasons? With numbers dipping a little bit, are people worried about Skenes every 5 days? ESPN has released its initial MLB All Star Game projections and the only Pirates rep is Paul Skenes. The Pirates do not have a hitter included, not even Brandon Lowe. Does it irk you that the Buccos have very little representation? The game is still over a month away. PM Team Sports Court w/ our friends from Edgar Snyder & Associates. Rumors of Aaron Donald making a return to the NFL are heating up. How far does he have to go before becoming the greatest defensive player of all-time?

Which Rays players deserve to be in the MLB All Star Game?
Happy Monday! Three more teams punched their tickets to Omaha: UNC, Georgia, and Texas. Only two slots remain for the College World Series, and the decision will be made tonight. Is it too early to start really talking about the MLB All-Star Game? Nope, it's not. Voting is underway, and I'm looking at a lot of American-Born Black players in the mix. Mike Harris, Jordan Walker, CJ Abrams, James Wood, Xavier Edwards, and Taj Bradley are near the top of my list. Drop some additional names in the comments. As always, thanks for your support. Go Knicks! And let's have a great week.
We are a little more than a month from the 2026 MLB All-Star Game, so we take a look at various Dodgers who might play for Dave Roberts and the National League team at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia. Shohei Ohtani is a lock for the All-Star team, whether he's voted as the starting designated hitter or not. He should make the team as both a DH and a pitcher for the first time since 2021 in Colorado. Andy Pages has been one of the best outfielders in baseball this year, and should be an All-Star for the first time. Max Muncy is off to a great start at the plate and has improved his defense, giving him an excellent start to make his third midsummer classic. Freddie Freeman is still humming along, but this brings a question of whether only first-half stats should count or should we also consider a player's numbers since last year's All-Star Game. Plus, we look at whether Yoshinobu Yamamoto will make his second midsummer classic and which Dodgers pitchers (Tanner Scott? Justin Wrobleski?) might join him.

THE FIRST ALL-STAR GAME with author Randall Sullivan What happens when a botched assassination attempt on a president, the “Outfit,” the Great Depression, and the Legend of Babe Ruth collide in Chicago? Author Randall Sullivan reveals how the first so-called “Game of the Century” helped pull America out of its darkest era. Discover the untold history of baseball's first All-Star Game and the legends that shaped the sport. In 1933, an assassin fired six bullets at President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt in Miami. Every single bullet missed FDR, but they fatally struck Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak. Out of the political chaos of that assassination, a city's desperation to escape the shadow of Al Capone's crime syndicate, and the darkest, most terrifying days of the Great Depression, an unbelievable gamble was born. To save the city's morale, a new mayor and a sports editor dreamed up the ultimate distraction: the first Major League Baseball All-Star Game. The Book THE FIRST ALL-STAR GAME: Babe Ruth, FDR, and America at the Crossroads (Atlantic Monthly Press, June 2, 2026) Summary Brian O'Leary sits down with three-time Pulitzer Prize nominee Randall Sullivan to discuss his new book, THE FIRST ALL-STAR GAME: Babe Ruth, FDR, and America at the Crossroads (Atlantic Monthly Press, June 2, 2026). Sullivan explains that the book was born from his discouragement over modern political polarization, leading him to research how the United States survived the Great Depression. The conversation traces the chain reaction of events that created the 1933 Chicago World's Fair and the first-ever All-Star Game. This includes a Miami assassination attempt on President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt that resulted in the death of Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak. Throughout the episode, we dive into the towering mythos of Babe Ruth, noting that his absence in 1925 caused American League attendance to plummet. We also explore the cultural fallout of the 1919 Black Sox scandal, the iron-fisted rule of Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis, and the forgotten legacies of players like Chuck Klein and Lefty O'Doul. Key Takeaways The Origins of the All-Star Game: The 1933 game was staged as a one-off exhibition for the Chicago World's Fair. It was pitched by sports editor Arch Ward to Mayor Edward Nash to boost morale after Mayor Cermak's tragic death. Babe Ruth's Unmatched Stardom: Ruth's absence due to illness in 1925 caused American League attendance to drop by 34%. Furthermore, he holds the top three WAR (Wins Above Replacement) seasons in Major League history. That's just the tip of the iceberg of the Ruthian Legend (and reality). The Black Sox Legacy: The 1919 scandal resulted in a complicated trial where players were acquitted by a working-class jury. However, Judge Landis later banned them for life, restoring baseball's image in the eyes of the outraged American public. Overlooked Baseball Legends: Sullivan argues that Lefty O'Doul deserves Hall of Fame recognition. O'Doul not only hit .398 with 254 hits in a 154-game season, but he was also instrumental in bringing baseball to Japan and in developing it there. Chapters Introduction to Randall Sullivan and his new book, The First All-Star Game. Finding inspiration in America's resilience during the Great Depression. FDR's assassination attempt and its connection to the Chicago World's Fair. The creation of the “Game of the Century” by Arch Ward. Babe Ruth's towering legacy and massive impact on baseball attendance. The 1919 Black Sox scandal trial and Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis. Unfairly judged players: The forgotten greatness of Chuck Klein. Why Lefty O'Doul deserves a spot in the Baseball Hall of Fame. Final thoughts on the historical significance of the 1933 All-Star Game. Memorable Quotes “If Michael Jordan had been injured in a season, maybe NBA attendance would've dropped by 3.4%… but without Babe Ruth, it dropped by 34%.” – Randall Sullivan “I want people to understand… that this was more than a game. And it was more than the inauguration of a tradition. It was a turning point in American history.” – Randall Sullivan Resources Mentioned THE FIRST ALL-STAR GAME: Babe Ruth, FDR, and America at the Crossroads (Atlantic Monthly Press, June 2, 2026).

In this episode, John Stackhouse visits Ross on the outskirts of Ottawa to talk with CEO David Ross about how the company grew from a small Canadian manufacturer into a global live-production infrastructure player. They discuss why the economics of live events changed so dramatically, how cheaper and more powerful screens transformed stadiums and concerts into multimedia platforms, and how Ross helps turn live data into visual storytelling through graphics, overlays, motion systems and production control. Ross Video is one of Canada's most consequential technology companies, even if most audiences have never heard of its name. They work across more than 100 countries. Their technology now sits inside countless modern live-event and broadcast experience: On field graphics, robotic camera systems, data-rich stadium presentation, newsroom and broadcast automation and the production systems behind concerts, major sports, studios and major event coverage for clients like MLB, NFL, PGA, NHL, Premier League, Metallica, Taylor Switft, Coldplay the list goes on and on and on. The conversation also surfaces a bigger business story. Ross describes its work as brand amplification technology, helping sports teams, venues, concerts and companies use screens, graphics, motion systems and production tools to deepen audience experience and strengthen commercial value. David lays out the company's operating logic clearly: expand into adjacencies, acquire expertise when needed, keep founders and technical talent engaged, and never fall behind in technology. That approach shows up in Ross's reinvestment model too: roughly one-third of the company is in R&D. This episode is about sports broadcast innovation, stadium technology, robotic cameras, concert production, real-time graphics, data storytelling, and the broader live-entertainment economy. Ross sits inside a much larger market shift: a world where live sports, concerts, venue systems, and production technology are becoming more immersive, more data-driven and more economically important.

Jeff and Mark open the episode by diving into some Pacific Northwest baseball deep-cuts, starting with the 14-year career of Darnell Coles and the search for his possible lone existing mural. They cover a run of opening day oddities, including Tuffy Rhodes' three-homer barrage against Doc Gooden in '94 and Harry Caray's confusion over fans spending their honeymoon at Wrigley Field. The guys also look at the current state of Rookie of the Year droughts for the Padres and Guardians and mourn the loss of the MLB.tv discount to the "ESPN corporate machine." The main feature covers the complex life of Jackie Jensen, the only man to play in a Rose Bowl, a World Series, and an MLB All-Star Game. From his "Golden Boy" status at Cal to being the hand-picked successor to Joe DiMaggio—only to be usurped by Mickey Mantle—the story follows Jensen's MVP peak in Boston and the paralyzing "AV-Phobia" that eventually forced him out of the game. The episode closes with a high-stakes Wax Pack Heroes battle featuring 2003 Topps. 00:00 Welcome 01:23 The Darnell Coles Deep-Dive 04:59 Opening Day '94: Tuffy Rhodes vs. Doc Gooden 07:59 Harry Caray Questions the Youth of America 11:30 ROTY Droughts 15:07 RIP MLB.tv Discounts and Sunday Night Local Broadcasts 18:39 Main Story: The Life and Legend of Jackie Jensen 44:36 Wax Pack Heroes: Big Hurt, Albert Pujols, and a Chris Snelling 55:36 Wrap-Up Connect With Us YouTube: www.youtube.com/@twostrikenoise Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/twostrikenoise BlueSky: @twostrikenoise.bsky.social Email: twostrikenoise@gmail.com Support a Great Cause: Don't let your common cards collect dust!

This isn't the first time Bo Jackson has talked with Chris Long. Bo was teammates with Howie Long with the Los Angeles Raiders and Bo tells Chris that Howie was Bo's alarm clock before NFL games. Bo would take a nap before kickoff and Howie would come by right before the team ran onto the field and wake him up, saying 'it's time to go.' Bo revealed plenty of other tremendous stories from his NFL and MLB careers. He tells Chris about the time the White Sox plane caught on fire in the air. Bo would sometimes have a beer in the clubhouse during Royals games to break out of slumps. And of course Bo talks about his Auburn career, spurning Alabama and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers because of his principles and opens up about his new podcast that sheds light on mens health.

In this episode of Two Strike Noise, Jeff and Mark explore the career of one of the most efficient pitchers in baseball history: Addie Joss. Known for his "corkscrew" delivery and a career ERA that remains the second-lowest of all time, Joss's life was cut short at just 31. The hosts detail the incredible 1911 Addie Joss Benefit Game, which brought together icons like Ty Cobb (in a borrowed jersey), Walter Johnson, and Cy Young for a cause that predated the official MLB All-Star Game by over two decades. Before the history lesson, the BP segment covers the recent passing of Tigers legend Mickey Lolich, a strange trivia bit about Ozzy Smith's fashion sense, and a look at Hall of Famers categorized by their home states. The episode concludes with a high-stakes round of Wax Pack Heroes, where Frank Robinson leads a 2003 Topps pack. 00:00 Intro: The Domingo Ramos Studio & "Ham Gravy" Origins 02:15 Non-Baseball Fact: Olive Oil and the Usurping of Popeye 04:30 BP Segment: Remembering Mickey Lolich (The Beer Drinker's Idol) 08:50 1987 Tops Trivia: Ozzy Smith, Best Casual Dresser? 11:15 The "Other" Ozzy: Canseco's Stint with the Cardinals 14:40 Hall of Famers by State: New York vs. California 19:20 WBC Woes: Insurance Issues and Javi Baez's Suspension 23:05 The Human Hairpin: The Dominance of Addie Joss 38:40 Wax Pack Heroes: 2003 Topps Mega Pack Battle 54:20 Wrapping Up: Mickey Lolich Deep Dive Tease Connect With Us YouTube: www.youtube.com/@twostrikenoise Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/twostrikenoise BlueSky: @twostrikenoise.bsky.social Email: twostrikenoise@gmail.com Support a Great Cause: Don't let your common cards collect dust!

The countdown is on. With Philadelphia set to host the 2026 MLB All-Star Game, excitement is starting to build across the city. The WIP Midday Show talks about what this means for Philly, the sports scene, and whether fans are actually buying into the celebration.
Hour 3 of the WIP Midday Show looks ahead to the 2026 MLB All-Star Game coming to Philadelphia and what kind of buzz it's creating. Plus, Joe Giglio stirs the pot by saying he would trade Joel Embiid “in a heartbeat,” sparking a fiery Sixers debate.
The WIP Midday Show tackles a loaded day in Philly sports. The show opens with a heated debate on whether Nick Sirianni should become the Eagles' offensive coordinator in 2026, followed by Rhea Hughes making it crystal clear why Sirianni should not be calling plays under any circumstances. The conversation continues with reaction to a report that longtime offensive line coach Jeff Stoutland was demoted during the 2025 Eagles season and what that says about the organization behind the scenes. The show also responds to Mike Silver's controversial “Lil Jordan” Jalen Hurts report and the national narrative surrounding the Eagles' quarterback. Later, excitement builds around Philadelphia hosting the 2026 MLB All-Star Game, while Joe Giglio delivers a shocking take, saying he would trade Joel Embiid “in a heartbeat.” The show wraps with a forward-looking Eagles discussion on whether drafting a quarterback in the 2026 NFL Draft makes sense, and a breakdown of why Bill Belichick was surprisingly snubbed from the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
This year marks the 250th anniversary of the nation, birthed right here in Philly. There are tons of festivals and block parties planned, along with sporting events like the FIFA World Cup, the NCAA tournament, and the Major League Baseball All-Star Game. But why should Philadelphians get excited about the 2026 hoopla, especially at a time that many of us see as a dark moment in our nation's history? Host Trenae Nuri sat down with Angela Val, president and CEO of Visit Philadelphia, to talk about the challenges, joys, and expectations when it comes to celebrating America, and us, in 2026.

In WIP's year-end program, Rob Charry takes you through 2 featured hours. First, we celebrate the career and life of Bernie Parent. You'll hear the story of Bernie becoming the Hall of Fame goaltender and treasure off the ice. We include interviews from his Broad Street Bully teammates who "walk together forever", as well as clips from Bernie himself and some of his career highlights. In the second hour, we set the stage for what will be an unforgettable 2026 in the sporting world, but particularly in Philadelphia. In the first 8 months of 2026 we'll see the NCAA Tournament here, PGA Championship, MLB HR Derby & All-Star Game, the World Cup, and the Phillies trip to Iowa for the Field of Dreams game. Governor Josh Shapiro gives an exclusive interview about these events from his perspective, and how exciting it will be in the city & state. This is in addition to perhaps another Super Bowl run and more October baseball.
Philly has a big 2026 with major events such as the FIFA World Cup, MLB All-Star Game, and celebrations for America's semiquincentennial. And big events mean more tourists coming through Philly, especially through our airport. But Philadelphia International Airport (PHL) was just ranked dead last for the fifth year in a row in customer satisfaction. Host Trenae Nuri chats with Siani Colon, our newsletter editor, about whether that ranking rings true to Philadelphians and what PHL is doing to fix itself up before a big year of tourism.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Trump's Tariffs Paying Off The economic impact of Trump-era tariffs, with the hosts highlighting a rare federal budget surplus in June 2025. They argue that despite media narratives, tariffs have not triggered significant inflation and instead have generated substantial revenue. The conversation also critiques Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell for high interest rates, which they claim have frozen the housing market and stifled economic growth. The hosts advocate for rate cuts to stimulate recovery, pointing to record-high stock market performance and strong job growth under Trump’s second term. Gov. Gavin Salesman Clay and Buck analyze California Governor Gavin Newsom’s national ambitions, suggesting he is positioning himself as a frontrunner for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination. They critique Newsom’s evasive responses on controversial issues like transgender policies and youth gender surgeries, portraying him as a polished but insubstantial figure who avoids taking firm stances. The discussion frames Newsom as emblematic of a Democratic strategy that relies on charm and ambiguity rather than policy clarity. Illegal Immigration Realities Deep dive into the pressing issues surrounding illegal immigration, border security, and the economic impact of immigration policies in the United States. The hosts open with a discussion on the controversial “Alligator Alcatraz” ICE facility near the Everglades, using it as a springboard to critique the media’s portrayal of immigration enforcement and the emotional narratives often used by the political left. A major theme throughout this hour is the economic burden of illegal immigration, with Clay and Buck arguing that the influx of undocumented migrants contributes to rising housing costs, overcrowded emergency rooms, and inflated hotel prices—particularly in cities like New York City. They highlight how Airbnb regulations and the use of hotels to house migrants have disrupted local markets, driving up costs for everyday Americans. Can You Believe This Question? Media bias and cultural influence, particularly in sports journalism. Clay and Buck react to a viral moment from the MLB All-Star Game press conference, where a reporter from Defector confronted MLB officials over Georgia’s voting laws. Clay and Buck criticize what they call “agenda journalism” and highlight the irony of punishing Atlanta—a majority Black city—for state-level legislation.
