Host Blair Kerkhoff reports on location from downtown Kansas City’s Power & Light District, which hosted a watch party for Tuesday’s Women’s World Cup semifinals. Hundreds cheered on the USA team, who beat England 2-1. Blair talks to fans and to David Ficklin, executive director of the Kansas City 2026 FIFA World Cup Bid, about what Tuesday’s crowds mean for the bid.
Whit Merrifield is the Royals’ All-Star Game representative. Star columnists Sam Mellinger and Vahe Gregorian discuss whether baseball got the selection right.

The Star’s Royals beat writer Lynn Worthy provides updates on Hunter Dozier’s big return, moves on the pitching staff, the Class AAA All-Star call for Bubba Starling and who gets the Royals’ All-Star spot and could there be more than one? With host Blair Kerkhoff.
