Randy Arozarena hangs with Rays fans in stands after Mariners trade
Randy Arozarena is a champion of the common man. Arozarena was acquired from the Rays to the Mariners in a surprising trade earlier this week.

Rays trade Randy Arozarena to Mariners in pre-deadline stunner

Mariners put Ty France on waivers as team struggles
The Mariners have accomplished something that was unthinkable just two years ago. Seattle placed longtime first baseman Ty France on waivers on Sunday, according to multiple reports.

Mariners’ J.P. Crawford, Scott Servais unload on umpire for bad call
JP Crawford wasn’t buying it.

The Mariners got a taste of the Luis Gil experience, but it wasn’t as easily accepted as it was in the Bronx on Thursday afternoon.

Juan Soto, Aaron Judge power Yankees over Mariners to avoid first three-game skid

Yankees sputter again in second straight loss to Mariners
The night before, the Yankees wrote off the loss as a fallout from the volatile sport. Seattle’s Tapper and Bloop found holes against Reid and Clay Holmes, who coughed up the game.

Clay Holmes’ nightmare ninth snaps Yankees’ win streak at seven with loss to Mariners
As the lights dimmed and began to flash, Clay Holmes jogged toward a jubilant crowd that saw a fairly new closer entrance designed to liven up the stadium. Minutes later, jubilant fans booed the closer as he touched up for the first time this season. Holmes gave up four runs in a nightmarish nine innings […]
Wow! Mariners Fan Pulls Some Absolute Black Magic By Catching Two Foul Balls On Consecutive Pitches
I can’t believe this. When it comes to a fan catching a foul ball at an MLB game (when it comes to baseball games, at all), it’s a very rare occurrence, which is why it’s special when it happens. But Seattle Mariners fans performed some absolute black magic on Monday night, catching not one, but […]
