Show Notes

The Negro Leagues have been kept alive through oral histories and the work of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum. That history is coming to life in a new way: through the Storylines option on the popular video game, MLB: The Show. NLBM president Bob Kendrick joins to talk about how the collaboration is one of the most important achievements of the museum and why the Negro Leagues matter more than ever.

Plus, Utah wants to give $900 million to build a new baseball stadium. Now it just needs a team, and EA Sports is making an unprecedented NIL offer to every football player in the FBS system.
