Mitch Keller had the Nats on lockdown—five scoreless through 5 on just 62 pitches—before he was lifted and the bullpen let it slip, turning a 3–0 lead into a 6–5 loss. Doug and DiNardo break down the decision to pull Keller, the ensuing relief carousel (and why “just get outs” wasn't the plan), and a bizarre base-running gaffe at the plate that erased the tying run. We hit the late push too: Nick Yorke's pinch-hit AB, Joey Bart's RBI knock for Henry Davis, and how a passed ball + non-competitive pitch compounded the damage. Offensively, there were real positives—Jared Triolo (2 hits), Spencer Horowitz (2 hits with a homer), Nick Gonzales (2-for-4), Bryan Reynolds RBI—while Andrew McCutchen's 0-for-4 and apparent back issue are something to monitor. Plus: what this says about Don Kelly's in-game leash, the bullpen's volatility (Sisk/Nicolas, etc.), and the bigger roster-building conversation.

Join the Hardcore Penn State Football Podcast as we preview No. 2 Penn State's Week 3 clash with Villanova at Beaver Stadium! Coming off a 2-0 start with a dominant 34-0 shutout over FIU, the Nittany Lions face an FCS opponent in Villanova, but with a massive Big Ten opener against No. 4 Oregon looming, this game is all about execution and momentum. We're diving into what Penn State must do to stay sharp, why this tune-up matters, and how some of the AP Poll voters still hav the Lions reigning supreme at No. 1. Let's break it down! After an inconsistent offensive showing against FIU—marked by Drew Allar's 57.6% completion rate and a sluggish 3-of-12 third-down conversions—Penn State can't afford to sleepwalk through this one. Coach James Franklin emphasized cleaning up the offensive line's missed assignments and boosting the run game led by Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen. Expect Allar to target Kyron Hudson, Trebor Pena and Devonte Ross early to build rhythm. Can the Lions deliver a crisp, mistake-free performance to send a message before Oregon? This matchup is Penn State's last chance to iron out kinks before hosting No. 4 Oregon in a Big Ten blockbuster that could shape their playoff path. The defense, led by Dani Dennis-Sutton and a resurgent Zuriah Fisher, has been lights-out, forcing turnovers and holding opponents to 354 combined yards over two games. Freshman DE Chaz Coleman's emergence adds depth, but Villanova's balanced attack will challenge PSU's ability to stay disciplined. Offensively, it's about consistency—can Allar shake off Week 2's woes, and will the O-line finally gel? We're analyzing how this game sets the stage for the Ducks and what Franklin's staff must prioritize. Despite some offensive hiccups, some of the AP Poll voters remain all-in on Penn State, holding the Nittany Lions at No. 1 for the third straight week. The shutout of FIU and Week 1's 46-11 rout of Nevada have voters sold on PSU's elite defense and upside, even with Oregon, Ohio State, and Texas nipping at their heels. We're debating whether the Lions deserve the top spot, how their résumé stacks up, and what a dominant win over Villanova could do to solidify their ranking before the Big Ten gauntlet begins. Will Gabe Nwosu's booming 70-yard punt from Week 2 flip the field again? Can Ryan Barker stay perfect on field goals? And which under-the-radar players—like S Antoine Belgrave-Shorter or RB Cam Wallace—might steal the show? We're breaking down matchups, sharing our score predictions, and discussing how PSU NEEDS to demolish VIllanova. Plus, live listener Q&A, Allar's ceiling, and whether this team is truly playoff-ready. Tune in now for the full preview—We Eat!

Mount Pleasant cruised to a 42-8 win as early turnovers and relentless defense set the tone.

Show Notes On this week's podcast, Dan and Kris board the SAG Cartoon Express for another “classic” episode of ThePower Team. This time, it's an episode called Train Game, where there's a train full of kids under threat of explosion from Mr. Big from NARC, and the only hope of saving the day lies in the hands of Acclaim NES game D-listers. Fun! In Week Old News, the new Mortal Kombat movie gets a hefty delay, the EverCade lineup gets some Activision goodness, and ninjas are EVERYWHERE! How desperate. Finally, in The Checkpoint, Kris beat Bananza, but Dan didn't so he can't talk about why the final act cements it as one of Nintendo's all-time greats. Dan got his hands on Metal Gear Solid Delta and has been annoying everyone he know switch his Solid Snake impressions, and Kris got to spend a little time with the beautiful Kirby and the Forgotten Land Nintendo Switch 2 Edition + Star crossed Worlds.

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") and intern Riley Sager are back in studio for the very first game recap show of a year, breaking down the absolute beatdown USC put on Missouri State. The Trojans took down the Bears 73-13, scoring at least 70 for the first time since the 2005 opener against Arkansas and putting up the most points since 1930 when USC hung 74 on California. It was a rude awakening for MSU who went on the road for its first game as an FBS program and got dismantled in the Coliseum by a very motivated Trojans squad. Offensively the Trojans were nearly flawless with only three incompletions thrown, 14 different players caught passes, 8 different players scored offensive touchdowns, averaged 10.5 yards per play, a perfect 7 for 7 in the red zone and one lone turnover on sack/fumble by backup quarterback Husan Longstreet. Defensively USC focused on using that bigger, more athletic defensive front to generate pressure and the plan worked, with the Trojans generating 5 sacks and 13 tackles for loss. The defense forced a pair of turnovers including a pick-six, gave up just 224 yards and a paltry 3.9 yards per play and 2.2 yards per rush. The crew talks about this near flawless performance and what it means, if anything, for this football team going forward. They also discuss the differences from last season including that improved defensive front, the impressive running backs room, Jayden Maiava keeping the ball out of harms way, a different vibe during warm-ups and dropping the "Drip Check" individual entrance for a more team-focused approach.

The Pirates and Cardinals wrapped up their 2025 season series, and Neil and Doug break it all down on tonight's Postgame Show Powered by Primanti's. The guys vent about the all-too-familiar script: Braxton Ashcraft shoved, but the bats disappeared and the bullpen collapsed late. They dig into Yohan Ramirez's disastrous outing, the shaky trust level with Colin Holderman, and the larger issue of bullpen construction under this front office. Offensively, the Bucs once again failed in big spots — going 0-for-6 with runners in scoring position and leaving eight men on base. Neil and Doug debate whether this team's situational hitting woes or the bullpen is the bigger problem, and how much blame falls on management versus the players. They also touch on the positives from Ashcraft's strong performance and where the Pirates go from here in the NL Central race.

Post-Gazette Pirates insider Noah Hiles gives his insight on which prospects may be promoted next after top pitching prospect Bubba Chandler made his MLB debut over the weekend.

Welcome to "In The Trenches with Dave Lapham," presented by First Star Logistics. In this episode, Dave Lapham joins Dave Berk to offer an in-depth preview of the Cincinnati Bengals' second preseason game against the Washington Commanders. They also tackle the pressing issue of the contract stalemate with star defensive end Trey Hendrickson. The conversation kicks off with a look at the heightened importance of the second preseason game. While the starters are expected to see some action, this matchup is a crucial evaluation opportunity for rookies, free agents, and players on the roster bubble who are fighting to make an impression. Lapham draws on his own experience as a former player, emphasizing the immense pressure these athletes face to perform and secure their spot on the team. A significant portion of the discussion is dedicated to the offensive line. Rookie offensive guard Dylan Fairchild, who had an impressive debut, is now tasked with the challenge of "stacking" another strong performance to prove his consistency. Lapham notes that while Fairchild's success isn't surprising given his pedigree at Georgia, the ability to consistently perform is what separates good players from great ones in the NFL. Conversely, they touch on the struggles of right guard Lucas Patrick and how that has opened up a battle for the position, with players like Jalen Rivers and Cody Ford in the mix. The conversation then shifts to the ongoing contract negotiations with Trey Hendrickson. Both Daves agree that a trade seems highly unlikely given Hendrickson's immense value to the team, not just as a premier pass rusher but also as a person and a leader. Lapham highlights Hendrickson's incredible work ethic and his status as the most productive pass rusher in the league over the last two seasons. They discuss the complexities of the negotiation, suggesting it's likely a matter of structuring the contract and the amount of guaranteed money, rather than a question of whether a deal will get done. Lapham expresses strong confidence that both sides will come to an agreement, as letting a player of Hendrickson's caliber go would be a massive loss for the Bengals. Looking ahead to the game against the Commanders, Lapham shares what he'll be watching for. Offensively, he wants to see the first-team offense, led by Joe Burrow, continue to execute at the high level they displayed in their first preseason outing. Defensively, he's looking for the unit to "up the ante" and play a cleaner, more cohesive game. He believes the Bengals' defense has the potential to be one of the best in the league under new coordinator Al Golden and wants to see them take a step towards realizing that potential. This episode of "In The Trenches" is a must-listen for any Bengals fan looking for expert analysis on the key storylines heading into the second week of the preseason. From individual player battles to high-stakes contract talks, Dave Lapham provides unparalleled insight into the state of the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Pirates blew a 3–2 lead and fell to the Cubs, 4–3, in a bullpen game where Carmen gave them 4 innings of 1-run ball before the pen (Holderman → Heaney → a bloop to tie → Mattson in the 8th) couldn't lock it down. Offensively, IKF/Horwitz manufactured a run, but the broader issue remains: not a single Pirate entered the day above league-average at the plate. We dig into bunting/fundamentals, the decision to make it a bullpen day instead of starting Heaney, and what this says about the roster.

Most of us know how to pray after the attack hits. We beg for rescue. We plead for peace. But there's a deeper calling in warfare prayer—one that doesn't just respond to battle, but initiates it. Offense isn't arrogance. It's spiritual obedience that says, “I'm not waiting for the enemy to hit me. I'm moving in first—with authority.”Our springboard for today's discussion is:“The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working.” — James 5:16 (ESV)Too often we treat prayer like a last resort. But in the kingdom of God, prayer is air support—and it's how we take ground. There's a boldness that rises when you understand that prayer isn't just emotional comfort—it's strategic warfare.Defensive prayer says, “Lord, protect me from what's coming.”Offensive prayer says, “Lord, go before me. Crush the enemy's schemes. Tear down strongholds.”You pray with insight—not just reaction. You call things into alignment before they spiral. You speak promises over your family, clarity over your mind, and truth into the atmosphere.And here's the key: righteousness. Not perfection—but right-standing with God through Jesus. That's what gives your prayers power. Not fancy words. Not emotional highs. Just raw, Spirit-filled faith.When you pray offensively, you stop begging—and start declaring. You remind the enemy of his place. You wield Scripture like a sword. You don't ask for victory—you pray from victory.You were never meant to live on the run. You were born to advance the Kingdom.Question of the Day:What's one area where you've been praying defensively—and how can you shift to praying offensively?Mini Call to Action:Choose one Scripture. Speak it boldly in prayer today—not from fear, but from victory. Don't ask for permission. Take ground.Let's Pray:Lord, ignite a warrior spirit in me. Teach me to pray with power, with clarity, and with confidence in Your promises. Let my prayers move heaven and shake hell. In Jesus' name, amen.Let's Get To Work!Stop reacting—start advancing.

Hosts Ray Powell and Jim Carouso interview Congressman Don Bacon (R-NE), a retired Air Force Brigadier General with 29 years of military service. Rep. Bacon serves on the House Armed Services Committee and brings unique insights from both military leadership and congressional oversight.Congressman Bacon is concerned that America is spending just 2.9% of GDP on defense—the lowest level since 1940, before Pearl Harbor. He argues for increasing defense spending to 4% of GDP, approximately $150 billion more annually, to address critical modernization needs including nuclear triad upgrades, fifth and sixth-generation fighters, attack submarines, and improved military quality of life.The discussion highlights America's innovation deficit, particularly in drone technology and electronic warfare, where Ukrainian forces have outpaced U.S. capabilities. Bacon emphasizes how Ukraine's recent destruction of 41 Russian strategic bombers using $5,000 drones demonstrates the power of cost-effective innovation over expensive legacy systems.Bacon addresses growing tensions within the Republican Party between traditional alliance supporters and isolationist factions, drawing parallels to 1930s isolationism. He warns that current diplomatic approaches risk alienating key allies, citing business challenges with Canada and European partners. The congressman advocates for maintaining America's role as "leader of the free world" while acknowledging the need for burden-sharing.With China potentially spending $700 billion on defense (despite claiming $170 billion), Bacon emphasizes the urgency of military modernization focused on long-range precision weapons, air and missile defense, and drone swarm technology. He stresses that deterring China requires immediate weapons deliveries to Taiwan, noting billions in delayed military aid.Two years of continuing resolutions have hampered military readiness and prevented new program starts. Bacon explains the bipartisan nature of the Armed Services Committee while criticizing broader congressional dysfunction that prioritizes partisan politics over national security.Bacon highlights critical nuclear deterrent gaps, including 50-year-old Minuteman III ICBMs that cannot be extended, aging B-2 bombers with outdated stealth technology, and Ohio-class submarines reaching end-of-life. With Strategic Air Command (SAC) Headquarters located at Offutt Air Force Base in his district, he argues these systems are essential for countering both China and Russia.Despite being a deficit hawk concerned about the $36 trillion national debt, Bacon argues that defense spending increases are necessary while addressing mandatory spending on Social Security and Medicare, which comprises 73% of federal spending.This episode provides essential insights into America's defense readiness challenges, alliance management complexities, and the urgent need for strategic clarity in confronting great power competition in the Indo-Pacific region.

In this episode of Talking About Birds, the hosts recap a tough week for the Cardinals, who placed Jordan Walker on the IL and called up Ryan Vilade, while also signing Tyler Matzek to a minor league deal. The pitching staff continues to struggle—Pallante's arsenal lacks effectiveness, Leahy isn't generating strikeouts, and Mikolas's fastball ranks among the worst in MLB. Offensively, Nolan Arenado is slumping, raising questions about rest versus defensive value, while Masyn Winn and Alec Burleson help keep the team afloat. The episode also previews upcoming series against the Dodgers and Blue Jays, and covers league news including injuries to Corbin Burnes and AJ Smith-Shawver, the Royals promoting Jac Caglianone, and troubling reports about threats made against Lance McCullers.Have a question or comment for the show?

On June 3, 2025, the Cincinnati Reds snapped the Milwaukee Brewers' eight-game winning streak with a 4-2 victory at Great American Ball Park, delivering a much-needed boost to their season. The Reds, struggling with a 29-32 record and fourth place in the NL Central, showcased resilience against a red-hot Brewers team that had dominated them in recent matchups, winning 18 of their last 22 games at Cincinnati. This win, highlighted by strong pitching and timely hitting, offered a glimmer of hope for a Reds squad looking to turn their season around under manager Terry Francona. The game's turning point came early with Reds ace Hunter Greene on the mound. Despite concerns about his right groin, which required an MRI post-game, Greene battled through five innings, allowing just two runs. His performance was gritty, throwing 114 pitches— the most by any MLB pitcher this year— and striking out key Brewers hitters. However, discomfort in the fifth inning forced his early exit, leaving the bullpen to preserve the lead. The Reds' relievers, often a weak point, stepped up, with the bullpen delivering dominant frames to secure the win. Offensively, the Reds struck early, jumping to a 2-0 lead in the first inning. While their bats went quiet afterward, struggling to capitalize on opportunities—a recurring issue this season—they added crucial runs late to seal the game. Santiago Espinal and TJ Friedl contributed key hits, while Elly De La Cruz, despite personal grief following his sister's passing, showed heart by playing and adding to the team's effort. The Reds' offense, described as “feast or famine” in 2025, leaned on just enough production to outlast Milwaukee's Christian Yelich, who homered but couldn't spark a comeback. This victory was more than a single game for Cincinnati. It halted a slide that saw them lose momentum after a promising April. With injuries piling up—outfielder Austin Hays landed on the injured list with a foot contusion—and trade deadline decisions looming, the Reds needed a statement win. While Greene's health remains a concern, the team's ability to rally against a division rival suggests potential for a second-half surge. For Reds fans, last night's win was a reminder of the team's talent and tenacity, even in a challenging season.
