Introduction: Host Michael Rand starts with an update in the AL Central, where the Twins' five-game winning streak ended in part because of a rough Pablo Lopez outing, the Guardians were rained out and now have two doubleheaders this week and the White Sox finally won after 21 consecutive losses. Also, a listener alerted Rand to a message sent by the Twins to season ticket holders about direct-to-consumer viewing options for 2025.

9:00: Star Tribune summer sports intern Cassidy Hettesheimer joins Rand to talk about her experience getting to know the Twin Cities and our sports scene. She's been doing a lot of Olympics coverage and catches us up to speed on what to watch for the rest of the way in Paris.

28:00: The Vikings have no problem listing a starting quarterback. It's the backup that they won't tell us about.
