Seas the moment! We love you @mariners.com—here's to a peng-win! Loving this postSEASon energy with Julio the Humboldt penguin and his NO FLY ZONE!

That's how I got covid the first time! It was January 2020 and one of my coworkers just "could not miss that meeting" and had the nastiest cough I'd ever heard. Her cube was across from mine.

People are going to read things into that series, even though all three games felt and looked like Spring Training games.

Exactly. Seems like counting chickens before they hatch.

I'm seeing a lot of folks on here saying the Dodgers have basically all but won the World Series. Uh, last time I checked they still have to win two more games to get there. And while the odds are in their favor to do so, it ain't over till it's over.

Starting a fight with a beloved analyst with ALS is quite the look. Wow.

AnnaClimbsMtns🔱 @annaclimbsmtns.bsky.social · 17h

And HUMPY!!! Yeah we went wild. Humpy is taking a victory lap - the mascot showed up at the Kraken vs Vegas game and we beat them in overtime! First time the Kraken have started 2-0 in their short history.

Hearing you two talk about Logan's facial hair cracked me up. A friend of mine who is just getting into Mariners baseball said "Gilbert looks like a grocery checker and he just murdered everyone.

I would lose my mind.

So. If they finally win the pennant and go to the World Series for the first time ever, I'm going to pick up a couple of #mariners flags, leave them on their graves, and tell them all about how incredible this baseball year has been.

My great-uncle, who lived until 92, died six years ago. I took care of him in his later years. We always used to watch the Sunday afternoon Mariners games after eating lunch together.

My uncle moved here when I was in middle school to get sober. He was on disability and didn't have much money. He used to bring me Mariners hats and bobbleheads from Goodwill. We didn't talk much, but we talked about baseball when we did. He died when I was in my twenties.

Trying to work. Thinking about my relatives who are no longer here to see this special Ms run. Crying at my desk instead. Thankful to work from home.

Mariners put in their B-relievers and the Jays couldn't score runs.

Yeah I had to watch on delay and couldn't set it up.

AnnaClimbsMtns🔱 @annaclimbsmtns.bsky.social · 1d

Also, can we talk about Josh Naylor? The man took a beating, stayed in the game, and blew it wide open.

Observations
- Julio set the TONE with that home run! Hell yeah!!!
- Our bullpen was just awesome. Bazardo did fantastic. Vargas was good. Vargas!!!
- Playoff Polo is my favorite
- The announcers need to LEARN STUFF ABOUT SEATTLE. Hello!!! Our team is GOOD.
