On today's episode we discuss everything that has taken place this weekend, from wrapping up our Logo Design Contest to a whole weekend of All-Star Caliber baseball! After HUNDREDS of votes, our new design has been chosen by YOU! And we LOVE IT! Thank you to everyone that participated, either by voting or submitting a design. We couldn't have done it without YOU! With the 2022 All-Star Game coming to you live from Dodgers Stadium, it's not surprising that some of entertainment's best are coming out to play. Bryan Cranston, Bad Bunny, Rob Lowe, and Jerry Lorenzen are just four of this year's star-studded celebrity softball game players. Team Brooklyn takes the victory. Moving on, the 2022 MLB Draft drew to a close on Tuesday after three days, 20 rounds, and 616 picks. The action all started on Sunday, when the Baltimore Orioles selected Jackson Holliday, Matt's son and an Oklahoma prep shortstop, with the No. 1 pick. The draft has since featured its trademark number of shockers, including when the Texas Rangers chose former Vanderbilt right-hander Kumar Rocker with the No. 3 pick, throwing boards into disarray. It's going to be an interesting journey to see how this year's drafties all pan out! The 2022 MLB Home Run Derby is set to take place, and Luke goes to witness his FIRST EVER Home Run Derby! Hear all about the full experience here! But if not, Juan Soto is your 2022 Home Run Derby champion after dueling it out with rookie Julio Rodriguez in a battle of the young bats. Juan Soto, just 23 years old, became the second youngest player ever to win the Derby. He is the second Washington Nationals player to win the event (Bryce Harper won in 2018) and the first Dominican-born champion since Robinson Cano (2011) and, of course, last but not least, the MLB All-Star Game, where everyone sits and watches to see if the National League will FINALLY pull off a win... That question will remain unanswered until next year...
