Furness Show 5-29: Negro League Stats, Joe Sheehan, Bill Walton Memories, D

We didn't have a chance to get to Bill Walton yesterday and he should be celebrated. Will Ryan Grubb improve the offense as much as Ian thinks the defense will elevate the Seahawks defense? How should we apply stats to sports when it comes to inclusion expansion? We can't erase the past, so how should we look at the number?   Mariners get a big win last night and the AL West is not looking great, but at least the Mariners remain on top. Where is the positive-to-negative spectrum around fans right now?   The Dumbest Thing You Will Hear Today! Sports talk radio in Boston hears Fred Toucher make some ridiculous comments regarding Bill Walton, who recently passed away.   Joe Sheehan, The Joe Sheehan Newsletter joins Ian for his weekly visit and begins with the positives of bringing more awareness to Major League Baseball finally integrating Negro League Numbers. Plus, has the overall quality of baseball gone down with the changes we've seen? Is a strikeout more significant that any other out? Finally, how much has advanced data collection changed the game?   We listen to a lovely sendoff to the Pac-12 sendoff delivered by Roxy Bernstein. Ian remembers his own experiences watching the conference. Bill Walton made every game he called sound like a championship, and Ian shares his own stories about him.   The Daily Power Play!   Yesterday we got a chance to meet new head coach of the Kraken, Dan Bylsma and we let you take a listen to what he had to say to Ian and Benton.
