Up close at the Mariners game
One of the great things about living in Gig Harbor is that you get the small town lifestyle, yet you’re still quite close to the big city events. We got some tickets to the Seattle Mariners game today versus the Cleveland Indians. From our house in North Gig Harbor it took 53 minutes to drive up to SafeCo Field in South Seattle. Not bad. Our tickets looked pretty good online…section 137 row 6. What we didn’t know until we got there was that section 137 is right behind the visitor’s dugout, and the first 4 rows are the dugout…so we were in the 2nd row! Sunny skies, 72 degrees, and baseball. What a great day! The M’s are horrible this year, and although they gave up 9 runs before they had an out in the 3rd, it was still fun. Here’s a few photos from the game.
Oh yeah…it was 80’s day at the ballpark.

Hi Matt - Great post. My wife is a rabid Mariners fan was utterly jealous.
Also, regarding riding our bike on “rural” roads, we actually do have a LOT of experience biking rural roads. In 1998 we rode our tandem from Shoreline, WA to Bar Harbor, ME. We biked through WA,ID,MT,ND,MN,IA,IL,IN,OH,PA,NY,VT,NH & ME. I think we rode every rural road out there!!!
Best regards,
James Lupori
