The Great Washington State Baseball Mystery: Unveiling Seattle's Emerald Diamond
Ah, baseball season! The crack of the bat, the roar of the crowd, the existential dread of watching your team lose yet another close game (unless you're a Yankees fan, then it's just existential dread in general). But before you dive headfirst into a vat of nachos and contemplate the meaning of life during a pitching change, there's a burning question that needs answering, especially for geographically confused baseball enthusiasts:
Is there even a Major League Baseball team in Washington State?
Fear not, fellow baseball fan! Unlike the fate of a fly ball lost in the afternoon sun, the answer is clear: Yes, Washington state boasts a Major League Baseball team, the mighty Seattle Mariners!
QuickTip: Skim the intro, then dive deeper.
That's right, folks. Nestled in the beautiful city of Seattle, amidst the coffee shops, grunge music legacy, and enough rain to rival Noah's flood (allegedly), lies T-Mobile Park, the emerald jewel where the Mariners call home.
Tip: The middle often holds the main point.

But why all the confusion?

Well, there's a reason Sherlock Holmes wouldn't have gotten his paycheck for this case. For a brief, bewildering period in the late 60s, there was another MLB team in Washington D.C. (not state) called the Washington Senators. Confusing, right? Don't worry, they eventually flew the coop and became the Texas Rangers in 1971.
QuickTip: Skim fast, then return for detail.
So, now you know! Washington state has its very own MLB team, ready to steal your heart (and maybe your hopes and dreams) with every swing of the bat.
Let's go Mariners! (Unless you're playing against my team, then...well, good luck Mariners. Don't hurt yourselves out there.)
QuickTip: Scroll back if you lose track.
