The Seattle Mariners play in the American League's Western Division. Safeco Field is the home to the Mariners, and has been since mid season in 1999. The nickname for the Mariners has become the "M's". Safeco Field is one of the only domed baseball stadiums. Yaytickets.com offers Mariners tickets at low prices, and you can find all the best seats to watch the games live.
The Mariners were a 1977 expansion franchise. Unfortunately they were unable to have a winning season until 1991, when they won the Divisional Title. The team has yet to win an American League Pennant. Additionally they have failed to make a World Series appearance.
The Mariners toiled in relative obscurity through the eighties. However in the winter of 1989 they drafted a young player by the name of Ken Griffey Jr. Junior, as he was known, has gone on to become one of the greatest players in Major League Baseball history. Junior is currently fifth on the all time home run list, with 611 long balls.
Despite their inconsistent record over the years the Mariners have fielded some great baseball teams. In the early 2000's they won 116 games one year, and have been division contenders a number of times. The team is rebuilding at the moment. The most popular player in Seattle right now is Ichiro Suzuki.
Suzuki plays Right Field. A spectacular fielder, he is one of the most consistent hitters to ever put on a baseball uniform. He also has one of the strongest throwing arms in baseball, and has been a huge success as a Mariner. Yaytickets.com has a large pool of tickets. Whether you want to sit behind Ichiro Suzuki in Right Field, or you want to hang out along the Third Base line. |
