"Tears of the Mariners."

I think I read a review of that. Thought it was one of those baseball stories like "Pride of the Yankees", you know? But it's just about some crabby old sailors, stuck in this little town.
Painless so far.

Mariners win the series with one of the most painless Rodney innings I've seen. Season high of 15 games over .500!

Five in a row, career highs for Kyle Seager, 1.5 game over the Tigers, 2 behind the A's.

Good night.

This too.

C Young had a decent, if unimpressive outing.

When was the last time the Mariners were 15 over .500?

E: It was 2007, of course.

Looking like 20 over on 8/24/07. Can't imagine they came close since then.

2009 is the only time they've been above .500 past April, and 12 or 13 was the highest they went

Sadly not even close to 12 or 13 over since 2007.

Highest over each season:

2008 - 1 on April 22nd. (lol)
2009 - 8 on Oct 4th. (ended on a high note - Griffey and Ichiro were in love.)
2010 - 2 on April 21st. (Uhhh)
2011 - 3 on June 5th. (Almost Summer at least.)
2012 - 2 on April 7th. (In Jack Z we trust.)
2013 - 2 on April 2nd (Fire him into the sun.)

That's some sad poo poo right there.

That seems so low. I guess the Tigers are predicted to overtake us again?

because they play in a division that doesn't have the A's or the loving Angels

it's only a 1 in 3 chance. 1.5 game lead with a few weeks left to play is not that secure

Yeah, the AL West is basically the worst division. Two of the best teams and two of the worst teams.

And the Mariners, just hanging out.
