Seattle Mariners

Bat-and-Ball Sports

The Seattle Mariners are a professional baseball team based in Seattle that competes in Major League Baseball as a member club of the American League West Division. The club joined the American League as an expansion team in 1977, played its early home games in the Kingdome, and has played at T-Mobile Park in the SoDo neighborhood since July 1999. The name reflects the prominence of marine culture in Seattle, and the mascot is the Mariner Moose. The most successful period came between 1995 and 2001, with Hall of Fame players Edgar Martinez, Ken Griffey Jr. and Randy Johnson, a 116-win season in 2001 that set an American League record, and playoff appearances in 1995, 1997, 2000 and 2001. The Mariners are the only active MLB franchise never to have appeared in the World Series.
