And here we begin the third annual installment of my favorite ballpark game:

"Can I take a picture of your back?"

A delightful senior couple wear C. Brown and Snoopy jerseys at T-Mobile Park Peanuts night on April 1, 2025

Brb writing a letter to Kyle Schwarber explaining that he needs to sign with the Mariners because his giant ass fits in with the lineup

JT Perry @circlejtp.me · 1h

He must sign here. He has the gluteal circumference to be a core part of this team.

I would spend so much money on Kyle Schwarber Mariners merchandise. So much money.

I'm leaning towards cancelling - this is a really special moment for most of my party and they'll probably want to be with family or a group of friends to focus on the game.

The trip to Neverwinter can wait until next week

Infield Fly Girl @infieldflygrl.online · 6h

So

Do I cancel D&D night to watch the Mariners or somehow find a way to watch while we play

"sportsball" reference from non sports fans is an automatic disregard of the argument

Infield Fly Girl @infieldflygrl.online · 5h

We're all old too! Well, everyone except our Fighter who's our Wizard's son

Infield Fly Girl @infieldflygrl.online · 6h

Nah we're solid, we're a year in and we play weekly. But it's a day game so probably not a factor anyway 😔

Infield Fly Girl @infieldflygrl.online · 6h

I'm the DM.

also ew it looks like it's a DAY GAME??? I hate that

Band outside T-Mobile playing Linkin Park's "Numb" as we exit is AMAZING lmao

Well, yes. But I also lived through the David Ross Experience.

Mike Standish @mikestandish.bsky.social · 7h

You’re only saying that because Dan Wilson is demonstrably just fucking up at every opportunity

Infield Fly Girl @infieldflygrl.online · 6h

Oh! It was not a fly ball, just a high IQ double play

Infield Fly Girl @infieldflygrl.online · 7h

How fun will it be for the Mariners to win at home 😀

Ultimately the infield fly rule exists for the benefit of the offense, not the defense

1 1 12

Infield Fly Girl @infieldflygrl.online · 7h

An infield fly is called by the umpire.

- fair
- fly ball
- can be caught with ordinary effort by an infielder
- 1st and 2nd occupied
- >2 outs

Umpire may have deemed infielder position or the sun meant more than ordinary effort, leaving the opportunity for the catch and double play intact.

Why wasn’t that an infield fly?

I could also hit left handed off of Gabe Speier today

Infield Fly Girl @infieldflygrl.online · 7h

I feel like this postseason might be able to finally put to rest the idea that any former catcher is instantly the best choice to manage a baseball team

Truly do not understand the logic of putting Gabe back out there??

Sparing myself from listening to the broadcasters by getting some local brown ale and truffle fries at my grocery store's bar while I watch the Mariners game.

I love the Pacific Northwest and I'm never leaving
