Digest more
Mariners fans waited for 24 years to see their team return to the ALCS, only for their World Series hopes to be snatched away.
There were two emotions possible for M's fans when Game 7 of the ALCS concluded: euphoria or despair. Unfortunately, they got smacked with the latter.
The Mariners took a 3–1 lead in Game 7 of the ALCS after solo home runs from Julio Rodríguez and Cal Raleigh and holding the Blue Jays to just one run through six innings. To their misfortunes, they weren't able to keep Toronto down any longer.
The Seattle Mariners are 6-0 when they play on the same day as the Seattle Seahawks. “Go M’s for my dad, Frank, in Heaven — lifelong, diehard fan!” one “Seattle’s Morning News” listener wrote. “We used to drive up to ‘Cheapskate Hill’ above Sick’s Stadium to watch!!!”
Hopeful, anxious Mariners fans gathered at T-Mobile Park on Monday night as the M's fell to the Blue Jays in Toronto, falling just short of the World Series.
