It's funny how any Mariner besides Jr, gets on the list, it just proves Seattle loves baseball. Even though they continue to trot out average team after average team, with really bad teams sprinkled in. N
As awful as the M's have been in their history, they have had some pretty big name players. Lets not forget that up until a few years ago, the Seahawks were not that much different than the M's. And as mediocre and weak as the Seahawks were before the PC era, they never really had the big name stars like the Mariners did. Probably the greatest retired Seahawk is an offensive linemen. I don't think many kids have posters of O-Linemen on their walls.
I would not call Seattle a baseball town, at least not anymore.
The Mariners have the 7th highest local TV rating in MLB this year, despite having the longest postseason drought in the sport.
