National League wins historic 2025 All-Star Game, Cal Raleigh crowned Home Run Derby champ
2025's edition of the Mid-Summer Classic turned out to be a first of its kind on Tuesday night. At the center of it was a player who is no stranger to the dramatic. The NL jumped out to a 6-0 lead heading into the seventh inning, but the AL came storming back. The game remained tied at the end of nine innings. The result turned out to be the first ever home run swing-off. Each team had three batters with three swings each. Whoever hit the most home runs was to be declared the winner. Down two home runs, the Phillies Kyle Schwarber hit a hat-trick of home runs to give the NL the win. Schwarber was named the MVP. Jake and Jordan talk about the electric finish to the night. Advertisement The game's end was not the only highlight of the night. MLB showed out in style in the ATL, including a red carpet entrance earlier in the day. Three home runs, before the swing-off, Kershaw mic'd up while pitching, the ABS challenge system being used, and Misiorowski entering in the eighth are just a few of the many standout moments from the game. Jake and Jordan discuss everything that happened at Truist Park. Tuesday night was not the only night of drama this week. Monday night's Home Run Derby lived up to its billing, but the winner was not who everyone expected. The man who leads MLB in home runs, but was not the favorite in the Derby, came away with the win. Cal Raleigh put on a show after barely making it out of the first round. It was a family affair with Raleigh's brother catching and his dad pitching. Jake and Jordan both did not pick 'The Big Dumper' to win, but they discuss his impressive Home Run Derby performance. From Truist Park, get the immediate All-Star Game reaction from the guys on this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast. Kyle Schwarber wins the All-Star Game for the NL on a home run swing-off.

Home Run Derby predictions & MLB Draft preview
The 4th of July has passed, but there will be some fireworks in Atlanta in just a few days as one of the most electrifying events in baseball takes center stage. The Home Run Derby. A stacked field will arrive at Truist Park ready to put on a show. The eight contestants consist of Cal Raleigh, James Wood, Junior Caminero, Byron Buxton, Brent Rooker, Jazz Chisholm Jr., Oneil Cruz and Ronald Acuña Jr. Jake and Jordan have been bursting with excitement for this year's Derby, and now they break down the field and ultimately pick a winner. Advertisement While those home run hitters are preparing to show off their power, the next great home run hitters might be waiting to hear their names called as the MLB Draft is just a couple of days away. The Washington Nationals have the number one pick. Coming off of a recent franchise overhaul, with the firing of their long-time GM and manager, they hope to take someone who will help carry them into the future. Jake and Jordan discuss this and chat about names to look out for in the 2025 MLB Draft. MLB has announced its top-20 highest selling jerseys, and to no one's surprise, Shohei Ohtani is at the top of that list. What is surprising is where some other players landed, including those who didn't make or fell off of the list. Last, but surely not least, everyone's favorite segment of the week is here. The Good, The Bad & The Uggla. Steve Cohen has taken to twitter again, Justin Verlander has a very unfortunate stat on the year and an epic playlist are some of the highlights from this week's segment.
