Notes on the Griffey-Fans v. Mariners Game by a Non-Fan

Notes on the Griffey-Fans v. Mariners Game by a Non-Fan

Friday night, waiting to be let in to the center field beer garden because there was a private party going on-- a group of lawyers or something who'd rented the space until game time. We stood patiently at the barricades, listening to the big 'ol tongue-in-ass Griffey ceremony. We couldn't see anything from our vantage except Junior's bright red hat in the distance. Couldn't see the TV to see what was going on because we were sandwiched between the barricades and the beer-fueled fratboy meatheads pressing to get into the garden. We watched some girls as they looked overhead to the jumbo scoreboard thing. They were crying. more ›

Tune Out the M's and Tune Into Man U

As April showers turn to May flowers Seattle sports fans continue to hope that this spring will bring better times for the local professional baseball team.

Mariners/Indians Postponed Again

Yet another postponement, and the new plan is to try to play a doubleheader on Monday, beginning at 10:05 am PST. The M's have a day game in Boston on Tuesday, so this would mean they'd play 3 games in about 28 hours. Not good. more ›

2001 Mariners Flashback: We Had a Good Manager Once

2001 Mariners Flashback: We Had a Good Manager Once

Yes, the M's won yesterday, pulling within 3.5 games of first-place Oakland. But not without another startling managerial gaffe. With runners on the corners, and two outs in the Dodgers fourth, Hargrove had Joel Pineiro pitch to the #8 hitter instead of walking him to get to the pitcher. Of course, the #8 hitter singled, driving in a run, and even Dave Niehaus, who is rarely critical, lamented "I don't understand why you don't walk that guy!" Neither do we, Dave. more ›

Pacifist's Row Kills Late Mariners Rally

Pacifist's Row Kills Late Mariners Rally

After shitting the bed in the 9th inning last night (bases loaded, nobody out, down two runs, and the "heart of the order" went down 1-2-3) and wasting another great start by Jamie Moyer, the Mariners fell to 3.5 games out of first place. more ›
