Tune in to today's episode of the podcast as I talk with David Driver, who covers the Washington Nationals for Federal Baseball (1:48-19:26). We talk about what's changed from last season to this year, the team's biggest weaknesses, how fun it is to watch Juan Soto and the Nats' farm system. 

Plus I chat with Will Hass of the Stuarts Draft Diamondbacks and Randolph-Macon (20:20-31:00). We talk about the 2020 college season getting canceled, his stellar RCBL season, what it's like to play with Tanner Morris and what to expect for the upcoming NCAA baseball season.

Plus, we talk about which team is the most exciting team in the league, and it's pretty much narrowed down to the Padres and White Sox.

Tune in to today's episode of Mornings with Matt as I go over some of the biggest moves we could see today at this year's trade deadline! Who will end up getting Lance Lynn? Will the Padres make any more moves? Will Mike Clevinger end up getting dealt? I go over all of those scenarios in this morning's podcast.

Plus, MLB went one day without any postponements, but that ended on Sunday as the A's and Astros had to push their game back due to a positive COVID-19 test. Now we'll have to wait and see how long this outbreak lasts and how it impacts the 2020 season. Tune in for all of that and more on today's edition of Mornings with Matt!

The Broadway Bruins are your 2020 Rockingham County Baseball League champions! The Bruins won their first league title since 1938, sweeping the New Market Shockers in the Championship Series. 

While JMU players such as Chase DeLauter and Travis Reifsnider certainly played a big part in Broadway's historic season, there are plenty of players who have been a part of the team for years. Guys like John Judy, Bryce Strawderman and Kevin Rush have been building this program up for the last couple of seasons, and their efforts finally culminated in a championship. 

On today's episode of the podcast, I talk with veteran Kevin Rush about how it feels to win a championship with Broadway, his past experience winning in the RCBL and his future plans in the league. 

The 2020 MLB Trade Deadline is rapidly approaching, so Trey Lyle and I are here to take you through everything you need to know about this year's deadline. We go through some of the potential deals that could happen, talk about wild blockbuster trades, and put ourselves in the shoes of a GM to see what we would do if we had the decision-making power. 

Tune in to this week's episode of Foul Ball Area for all the trade deadline talk and more!

Chase DeLauter of the Broadway Bruins joins Matthew Atkins for a special Friday episode of the podcast. DeLauter was a Freshman All-American in 2020 at James Madison University, and played with the Broadway Bruins in the RCBL during the summer of 2020. 

DeLauter led the RCBL in batting average (.545), home runs (13) and RBIs (39), among many other categories. He was named league MVP and Rookie of the Year, and has played an integral part in leading the Bruins to their first pennant since 1931. 

We talk about DeLauter's first season at JMU, his experience with the RCBL this summer and what it was like getting to play at his collegiate home ballpark throughout the RCBL season.

Plus, we take a look back at this day in baseball history, talk about the Yankees' injuries, and take a look around the league to see how each team is doing as we pass the 20-game mark. Finally, we discuss what would happen in the world if the Orioles and Marlins both made the postseason, which is very possible this year.
