T-Mobile Park Tickets

The Seattle Mariners are an American professional baseball team based in Seattle, Washington. The team plays their home games from T-Mobile Park Stadium as a member of the American League West division of Major League Baseball. The team initially joined the league as an expansion team in 1977 where they played in their old stadium, the Kingdome.

The Mariners name originates from the culture of Seattle city life, which has a very heavy marine theme. The team are also nicknamed the “M’s” as the letter features primarily in their logo from 1987 to 1992. The team used to wear royal blue and gold, but recently changed their colors to navy blue, teal, and silver. The team mascot is the Mariner Moose.

The team struggled early on in its career as it failed to field a winning team until 1991. But the team found their place in football in 1995 when tehy won their first division champion and defeated the New York Yankees in the ALDS. The game-winning hit in Game 5, was when Edgar Martinez drove home Ken Griffey Jr. to win the game in the 11th inning, which clinched the Mariners series win. This moment was a powerful one that led to baseball being kept in inspiring the building of their new stadium.

The Mariners currently have one of the longest active playoff-droughts in the MLB, but fans still come out during every home game to cheer on their local team.
