Jordan Walker Dominates Philly, Dillon McCowan Rules Lucas Oil, & Brandon Hite Behind the Scenes

On this hour of The Starting Lineup, we are celebrating All Star Tuesday in style! We dive headfirst into Jordan Walker’s jaw-dropping, history-making walk-off performance to secure the Home Run Derby title as the first Cardinal to ever win it. We break down the Philly crowd dynamic, Walker's incredibly mature attitude, and why this stamps him as a true national superstar. Then, we're joined by local broadcast wizard Brandon Hite of Hite Media. He lifts the curtain on the technical wizardry, frantic pacing, and student-powered crews that make every Missouri State broadcast on ESPN+ look effortless. Plus, we take a few hot-button swings at FIFA's puzzling World Cup scheduling, look ahead to former Missouri State Bear Drake Baldwin starting in the All-Star showcase, and applaud local 22-year-old racer Dillon McCowan for his spectacular weekend dominance. Grab your morning coffee and settle in for the best sports talk in the Ozarks! See omnystudio.com/listener (https://omnystudio.com/listener) for privacy information.
