Episode Details

The 96th All-Star Game did not disappoint. From the spectacle to the celebration of Hank Aaron and the first ever Home Run Derby Swing-Off, Truist Park saw a lot of memorable moments for the 2025 Midsummer Classic. What history did Hunter Goodman make? And which Blake Street Bomber was seen for the first time in a while?

A large majority of All-Star each year are not drafted and developed by their current club. Even if Colorado thinks they can only develop future stars -- like those signed as international free agents such as teenagers like Ronald Acuña Jr., Elly De La Cruz and Vlad Guerrero Jr. -- they are missing multiple opportunities at improving their roster. So, where did all these All-Stars come from?

Plus, the hit-by-pitch that could improve Ryan McMahon’s trade value, another Diamondbacks’ first for Corbin Carroll and the 0-for-2 performance by MVP Kyle Schwarber.
