Football may be around the corner, but the Seahawks’ neighbors directly to the south – the Mariners – are making quite the case for fans to stay invested in baseball season.
The Mariners have been on an absolute tear lately, and were returning home after a successful 8-2 road trip to a raucous crowd at T-Mobile Park. There to greet them was former Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman, but he was not the only Seattle legend during the pregame festivities.

After being behind 10 games, the Mariners now own a share of first place in the AL West. It is the latest in the season the Mariners have been in this position since August of 2003. They have won 18 of their last 21, including Friday night’s game 7-5 against the Kansas City Royals.
