What is the story about?
Hello friends!
The Mariners got back into the win column yesterday in a 5-4 walk-off victory over the A’s. The M’s enjoy an off-day today as they embark on a road trip to St. Louis and Minnesota.
Busch Stadium is one of those parks I’ve always wanted to see in person, though I think Coors is No. 1 on my list. What non-Seattle ballpark is at the top of your to-visit list?
