Manuch opens the hour with frustration over another critical base running blunder by the Diamondbacks, continuing a pattern from the night before that left runners stranded in scoring position. The bad news keeps rolling as it’s confirmed that Cardinals rookie Walter Nolan III will likely miss most—if not all—of training camp with a calf injury. Manuch then rants about the troubling trend of calf injuries among recent Cardinals draft picks. The focus shifts to league-wide NFL headlines, highlighting major names and holdouts as training camps open across the country. Later, Arizona State University Athletic Director Graham Rossini joins the show to celebrate ASU winning the Commissioner’s Cup, recognizing overall excellence in academics, athletics, and community service. Rossini shares insight into the school’s move to the Big 12, how last season’s football playoff run energized the fanbase, and why he's campaigning quarterback Sam Leavitt as a legitimate Heisman contender with strong NIL support. The hour wraps with the A/C Experts Hot Recipient of the Week, honoring Astros rookie second baseman Brice Matthews, who dominated the D-backs with clutch performances in back-to-back games.
