    Over an 18-year career with the Florida Marlins, San Diego Padres and Milwaukee Brewers, Trevor Hoffman cemented his place as one of the best pitchers ever to close out games. His 601 saves are second all-time and he was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2018.

    For 11 seasons spanning from 2012-2017, the Korie Robertson and her family welcomed the world into their home and their lives through the hit television show, "Duck Dynasty."

Korie is the author of two books, and most recently the family produced its first film, "The Blind," which hit theaters on Sept. 28. Korie joins "Get in the Game" this week to talk about her experience being on television, what life has been like since the show, dealing with pressures of fame and how God is using them to reach others.

    Water Mission Roundtable With Former MLB Players

    Water Mission Roundtable With Former MLB Players

    This week on "Get in the Game," you'll get to head straight into the mission field. Scott Linebrink recently went to Chiapas, Mexico for a vision trip with Water Mission. He was accompanied by former major league baseball players Jaime Garcia, Joakim Soria, Mark Melancon and Bruce Chen, as well as Morgan Chalk of Ronald Blue Trust and his friend, Ryan Sweezy.

    In this roundtable discussion, you'll hear different perspectives on what it means to build safe water projects in communities that desperately need them. All of these men lead with their faith in God out front and have a heart for serving those who are underserved. As Garcia says, "we're bringing safe drinking water, but we're (also) bringing the living water."

    Adam Wainwright, St. Louis Cardinals Pitcher

    Adam Wainwright, St. Louis Cardinals Pitcher

    Last time on "Get in the Game," Houston Astros infielder Mauricio Dubón shared about how Water Mission and St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Adam Wainwright together made a life-changing difference in his community when they established a clean water project near his town in Honduras. Earlier this season, Dubón shared that story with Wainwright following a Cardinals vs. Astros games, and Wainwright was blown away.

    This week, Wainwright joins the show to share his side of the story and catch up with Scott Linebrink, someone who he credits for making a major difference in his own life. The 2023 season was Wainwright last in what has been storied career in major league baseball, and the story of how he made an impact in Honduras was shared during his retirement ceremony at Busch Stadium.

    In response, the Cardinals and the Cardinals Care Foundation donated $100,000 to build a safe water project in Honduras near the town where Dubón is from, further investing in that community.

    Linebrink was invited to be on the field with Wainwright during his ceremony and spoke with him for the podcast while there. In this episode, Wainwright reflects on his 18-year career and how his faith in God shaped what he did on and off the field.

    Mauricio Dubón, Houston Astros Shortstop

    Mauricio Dubón, Houston Astros Shortstop

    Almost a decade ago, Scott Linebrink took a trip to Honduras with Water Mission. Joined by St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Adam Wainwright and Don Christensen of Ronald Blue Trust, the group was there to establish clean water resources for a country where they are scarce.

    Little did he knew that living in a nearby community was future major league player Mauricio Dubón, now with the Houston Astros. A fews after that trip, Dubón left Honduras to pursue his MLB career. Growing up, he had felt the effects of unclean drinking water, experiencing occasional illness because of it. Now an established big league player and a member of the Astros' 2022 World Series championship team, he caught wind of the trip that Linebrink and Wainwright took to help bring clean water to his community, and earlier this season he got to thank Wainwright in person for his efforts.

    He joins "Get in the Game" this week to reflect with Linebrink about his road to the major leagues as well as his encounter with Wainwright and how much it meant to him. This is Part 1 of a two-part series, with Wainwright rejoining the show next to share his version of the story and how much it impacted him.

Great perspective & a gracious host:

It’s been an honor getting to know Scott over the last several years… we have chased Jesus together, encouraged one another with our non-profit work & enjoyed a few rounds of golf. He’s as genuine and authentic as they come. As iron sharpens iron my friend… #getinthegame

A one of a kind Podcast

Scott and his guests raise the curtain and allow you to see them not just as athletes but as husbands, fathers, leaders and men of faith and service. An outstanding Podcast and opportunity to learn and challenge yourself with each new episode.

MLB Players Lives Beyond the Game

I found myself laughing, learning and crying, listening to Scott set up players from his past to tell their stories. Kind of like he set up the closers on the teams with which he played during his MLB career.
