Furness Show 6-21: Mariners baseball, Dwight Jaynes and Jayson Stark


Listen Later

It's a shame the Mariners are on the road during this beautiful week! However, we have plenty of entertainment in the form of hockey. How will the Sonics look when they come back? Has the NBA taken a step back when it comes to the competitive aspect? Last night we heard from Reggie Jackson regarding the time he spent in Major League Baseball, and the unfortunate circumstances he faced. There are certain people that deserve tribute that we might not recognize as much as we should. Ian is reminded of Pete Carroll while we discuss Charlie Finley and what he did for Reggie Jackson during his time. Carroll cared more about his players than a game sometimes, and he did it well. Dwight Jaynes, Portland Sports Legend joins Ian for Friends with Furness and discusses his memories of Willie Mays, as well as how his play stacks up against today's talent. Could Portland see MLB come to town? Plus, what makes an NBA team great, as it seems things have changed over time. Offense is down across baseball, so do the Mariners really need to add a bat? It's not as easy as it would seem. What do you need the Mariners to do to be satisfied with their series in Miami? Jayson Stark, The Athletic joins us to talk about Willie Mays and the legacy he leaves behind. Jayson took a deep look into the lack of offense in baseball this season, which allows us some insight on the Mariners' situation right now.
