Bernie Miklasz joins Tom Ackerman to break down the Cardinals' impressive May run—featuring the best record in baseball—and their latest 2-0 win over the Texas Rangers. They examine the leadership of Nolan Arenado, the commitment of Sonny Gray and Wilson Contreras, and how injuries like Jordan Walker's are opening up opportunities for players like Nolan Gorman and Lars Burleson. Miklasz makes a compelling case in defense of manager Oli Marmol, comparing his early success to Tony La Russa's first four seasons. Despite La Russa's legendary status, Marmol currently holds a better winning percentage, all while working with fewer organizational resources. Bernie highlights the context behind those numbers, praising Marmol's ability to maximize his roster.

In Hour 1, Tom Ackerman recaps the Cardinals' strong May performance, featuring dominant pitching from Sonny Gray and a key series win over the Rangers. Bernie Miklasz joins to compare Oliver Marmol's early managerial years with Tony La Russa's start in St. Louis, while highlighting Nolan Arenado's leadership. Indy 500 champion Alex Palou talks about making history as the first Spanish driver to win the race and previews his upcoming appearance at Worldwide Technology Raceway. Cardinals President John Mozeliak closes the hour with insight on Sonny Gray and Wilson Contreras' leadership, Jordan Walker's injury, and recent roster moves including player development strategies moving forward.

(12:11-19:40) In a recent segment, we featured audio from Kevin Patullo, who shared insights about one of his mentors during his ascent in the coaching profession. (19:40—30:58) Andrew DiCecco also joined the show to offer his observations from the voluntary OTA sessions at the Eagles camp, providing valuable insights into the team's dynamics.

  Near the visitors' dugout at Coors Field in September 2024, Cardinals veteran Matt Carpenter found a relatively quiet spot to discuss his career, his future plans, and the dramatic shifts he's seen in the game since his arrival in 2011 with the Best Podcast in Baseball.  Carpenter announced his retirement this past week after 14 seasons in the majors, and included a six-year run as one of the top leadoff hitters in the game to go with three All-Star appearances and a Silver Slugger Award at second base. This is a BPIB replay of the full episode that first dropped on Sept. 28, 2024. From the original launch of this episode: Toward the end of his first professional season, not too long after he told a roommate Oliver Marmol about his personal and accelerated timetable to reach the majors, Matt Carpenter got a phone call that could have forever changed his career in baseball. He was approached about being a coach, and he was tempted to take it. The next summer his playing career took off. There are baseball cards galore and probably a Cardinals Hall of Fame red jacket in his future that tell how that story ended, but Carpenter shares with the Best Podcast in Baseball how close he came to moving to a role in the game that he might eventually also have. A three-time All-Star who returned to the Cardinals for the 2024 season, Carpenter joins the Best Podcast in Baseball and baseball writer Derrick Goold for a conversation many months in the making. The two spoke this past week near the batting cage at Coors Field, just ahead of the Cardinals' season finale in San Francisco. From his early days with the Cardinals as a spring-training standout and favorite of manager Tony La Russa, Carpenter's career had to constantly evolve. He became a second baseman. He became a leadoff hitter. He broke a doubles record long held by Stan Musial, and then his changed his swing and late in one season led the National League in homers and slugging on his way to MVP considerations. And through it all, a coach's kid out of Texas who judged his production by how high above .300 his average was had to learn in real time as the game shifted to take that away from him, quite literally. He had to embrace slugging. He had to reinvent his swing. He had to reclaim his career. And over the course of this season, Goold asked Carpenter if he would talke about all he learned about Major League Baseball's modern offense and how difficult it has become to be a hitter in a game when failure, already abundant, is increasing. Consider the math. As batting average has grown less important, hitters are being told they can do more with a .270 average and slugging than singling their way to a .330 average, and still that difference is six outs, six fewer times succeeding. Carpenter has some thoughts and offers lots of insight. This brand-new BPIB begins as all good stories do on a road trip with Matt Holliday and Carpenter and the trouble they encountered somewhere between Stillwater, Oklahoma, and Memphis, Tennessee. The conversation also touches on what went sideways for the Cardinals' offense during a season that will finish with a winning record but nowhere close to the team's stated goal of contending for the NL Central title and returning to the playoffs. Carpenter also discusses his immediate and longterm future, which brings up the story about the phone call he received while playing Class A baseball for the Cardinals with an offer he wasn't sure he could refuse. The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.

Continuing our 600th podcast celebration, Brett Ballantini had the Sharing Sox duo of Leigh and Will Allan on, for the very first time together, the mothership. We attempted to make zero references to the 2025 White Sox, but failed. Still, this is mostly contemporary White Sox-free: Revisiting the first episode, Sept. 9, 2020, and acknowledging that the first on our Megaphone player is No. 8, that October. The first seven Sharing Sox podcasts were with Sports Illustrated and not (yet) on our player The first "true" podcast, then, No. 8, was on Oct. 14, 2020, and it concerned ... the managerial search (that ended with the hiring of Tony La Russa). The duo was shocked and horrified in remembrance of that time, and that innocence Does the duo regret landing on the White Sox as their team to root for? What drove the father-son duo to start the podcast in the first place? Favorite guests on the show How hard is it to continue doing this, both 143 programs and yes, still covering a team with narrow hopes of something better any time soon? The highlights of being able to do this podcast with a family member Please support our White Sox writing and podcasts.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
