Reference for Berakhot 30:13
וצריכא דאי אשמעינן הלכה כר' יהודה הוה אמינא אפילו לכתחלה קמ"ל הלכה כר' יהודה שאמר משום ר' אלעזר בן עזריה
It is necessary [to state it in this way] ; for if he had informed us only that the Halakah is in accord with R. Judah, I might have supposed [the Shema' need not be read audibly] ab initio ; therefore he tells us that the Halakah is in accord with R. Judah's view which he reported in the name of R. Eleazar b. 'Azariah.
