Is the Mariners game still going on

Kirsten W @xfkirsten.bsky.social · 1d

Yes, I think it's bottom of the 7th. And they did not open back up. 😭

(That said, I also didn't want to get out of my seat and miss any of the game anyways!)

As a fellow USD alumni, yes please!

Megan Corcoran @megancorcoran.bsky.social · 1d

can we just…take him off the Detroit roster and take him to Toronto with us?

Brent Stecker @brentstecker.bsky.social · 1d

Man, poor Paul Sewald. This shot of him watching the Mariners celebrate just broke me.

I could see the video board in Lumen Field from my seat... I watched as the Reign started AND finished their game while the Mariners were still going. 😂

AGREED. Also, I liked getting 6 extra innings for my money.

You can’t script it. The Mariners are willed to victory by Humpy the fish finally winning his first race in the middle of the 15th inning. The crowd chants “Humpy Humpy” as the trident crosses off the ALDS win.

In the 15th inning of tonight's ALDS, my beloved Humpy the salmon won his first ever victory in the Mariners' salmon race.

A half an inning later, the Mariners finished it all off. Coincidence?

Prior to tonight, Humpy the salmon had NEVER won a salmon race at T-Mobile park.

I have never screamed that hard at a sporting event EVER. That was absolutely an all-time experience!

Kirsten W @xfkirsten.bsky.social · 1d

I screamed so much I have lost my voice. And it is wonderful.

Dearest Family,

It is now the 14th inning. The day grows long, and our supplies of sale have dwindled. But our spirits are high, and we shall refuse to lose.

Signed,
This 10th day of October, 2025

I am already terrified for the Mariners game 5 today. This has been our best hope in 25 years...
