How to visit a stadium that doesn’t exist

Is it still a home game if the team won’t call it home?

Maybe you’re like me—a Mariners fan who doesn’t live in Washington. Maybe you live in a city with a team. Or a city that’s suddenly hosting a team. One that doesn’t want to be there. One that won’t even admit it plays in your town. And when people mention your city they only do so as a punchline to a sad joke.

But you are recently married and bought a house in this city, your first house, and you plan to stay...

T-Mobile Park, the batter’s eye: a new perspective

When you stare into the batter’s eye in Seattle, something unfamiliar stares back.

What a batter sees at T-Mobile Park changes within a game and season.

Last year, I tested batter vision at T-Mobile Parking using the position of the sun. My premise was that if there is an issue with vision, we should see performance change as light changes in the stadium. I found the sun to be a strong predictor of performance overall and discovered a spike in whiff rate just after sunset. I...

Connection is also the word I would use to describe the Mariners’ bats vis-a-vis seemingly every pitch these days

Mariners Game #36 Preview: 5/7, in Sacramento

Joe Nicholson-USA TODAY Sports

A beautiful day for a ballgame

The rubber match of the Mariners’ first trip to Sacramento features a great pitching matchup.

Bryan Woo loved pitching in the ballpark closest to where he grew up in Alameda, California. Over three starts at the Colisseum, Woo allowed just two runs over 16 innings, with 18 strikeouts. Will that dominance follow to the A’s new home?

Baseball’s lesser Gunnar H takes the slab for the Athletics. One time headliner of the...

The victory was always in the stone, M’s chisel away for 5-3 comeback win

Photo by Ezra Shaw/Getty Images

It takes vision, patience, and consistency to grind out a victory like tonight’s.

My experience with sculpting is the grinding of my jaws pressing molars against molars, agitatedly expressing my nerves in friction between my teeth. One day, I will chew my last ice cube, retire my gnashing jersey and watch it lofted into the rafters of my palate. Until that day, however, I will have useful reference for what these Seattle Mariners are capable of, and why their...

#25 returns for #35

Everyone say a big thank you to John, who offered to take tonight’s recap because I am still mad about last night’s game. I will be making a pork roast as a form of self-care and repeating the mantra that it’s only two more games left in this curséd little ballpark until July. Maybe by then it will have grown up into a real MLB stadium, with real foul territory and everything.

Randy’s back! But at DH as the team continues to...
