Seattle Washington Mariners Baseball

The Mariners are a Seattle, WA based Western Division MLB professional baseball team. The current home of the team is in Safeco Field in the International District of Seattle. The team mascot is Mariner Moose and his jersey shares the team colors with the players - navy blue, teal, and metallic silver. The name "Mariners" came about due to the impact of marine culture in Seattle, WA. The Mariners have never played in a World Series and are owned by the corporate subsidiary - Nintendo of America.

The team has an interesting cultural tradition started in 2007 by broadcaster Mike Blowers called "Rally Fries". This is where the broadcaster will deliver a plate of Ivars (a seattle based institution) french fries, around the 6th inning, to a group of fans he finds interesting or full of team spirit.

The Seattle Mariners Hall of Fame is an organization created to honor the team members, staff, and other people in the organization. The Baseball Museum of the Pacific Northwest, located in Safeco Field, is where you can find the tribute.
