That home run by Cal will forever be known as the Moon Shot. I have never seen a HR hit that high. It just kept going up and out. Insane Power!

Add the fact that the dodgers biggest contract has deferred payments for ten years.

It's really strange how the players' union in baseball is so much stronger than the players' union in the NFL. The salary CAP has been a non-starter when it comes to collective bargaining between the baseball players' union and ownership. I'm all for unions, but in this case it works against the good of the game and the fan experience, and actually creates more of a division between the haves and the have nots.

I know. Right when it left the bat I thought to myself...damn, he got under it too much. But then it just kept going.

I still can't believe that Geno hit two long balls, drove in five of our six runs, and put an exclamation point on the game with his grand salami in the bottom of the eighth. Can you imagine Niehaus making that call? LOL But can never forget Cal breaking that agonizing six inning run drought with his mile high dinger in the eighth. I know the votes have already been cast, but if that wasn't an MVP moment, then such things don't exist.

That 8th inning could go down as a HISTORIC moment in team history.

When Edgar hit a grand slam vs the Yankees.....8TH INNING. I'll never forget it. Dove on my couch and knocked the whole thing over.

I heard it was 9 feet from hitting the moon.

Exactly what I thought. If HR ball altitude is also recorded by the stat keepers in addition to angle/speed/distance, I wonder how it compares with the highest ever hit at Safeco/T-Mobile.

I'm guessing it's Logan Gilbert to the mound for us tomorrow. In any case, it doesn't matter what pitchers are brought in to pitch for us when we might need them. The WS doesn't start until Friday, so even if our series goes seven games, the next game won't commence till four days later. Plenty of time to reset the rotation for the WS if we're fortunate enough to get there.

ANOTHER old man... Welcome to 2025... just saying... my previous post to his reply

My bad, drunk guy. You're right, I'm not terribly familiar with the latest in aviation and radar technology, but that doesn't mean I'm old (I'm not).

I can't imagine why such an innocuous comment would trigger you enough to feel the need to go into condescending dickbag mode. You're a strange dude.

It looked like it would hit the roof!

Explain please. I'm too old and feeble to understand what's going on here, but if the Mariners are going to win the World Cup they're going to need to do a better job of making their free throws from inside the red zone.

Funny not so funny story from yesterday .
Hit the team shop at T-Mobile to get a new Julio jersey . There is a rack with 200 of the color I want and Rodriguez 44 on the back. Wanted an XL looked at 150 of them and finally decided on XXL and to where it over my hoody. Put it on at my seat tell my wife to guess which players jersey I got. She says “Julio” I turn around to show her and yep, no name or number on it. Haha what a clown I am.

You forgot one.

Dubs up vs Michigan.

Goosebumps. This really happened last night!

Freaking chills!!!

Hell of a battle. All I hear is how UW can't compete in the Big 10. They played Ohio State tough and are tied at the big house today, mid 3rd quarter.

Hawks need to win those overtime shoot outs. Gotta score more goals, and they HAVE to get more Power Play goals. Mariners are taking the rider cup.

I'm just hoping for a top ten finish in the FedEx Cup standings this season. Still need to upgrade the point guard position and the goalie isn't converting enough 3rd downs in the outfield.
