Yes, it had a playoff/electric atmosphere for 2 teams that won't come close. It reminds me of when the Yankees played at old Shea. Annoying as hell for the "home" team's fans but it gets the usually passive Mariners fans involved at least.
The FO must be estatic with over 30K for a Monday night! Timing the series for BC Day and all that advertising on Team 1040 prove to me how well oiled a money making machine the Mariners are.
Kuma (and Dickey) pitched very well and a couple of "obvious" no calls on Bautista and Reyes. We'll all enjoy Felix tonight and if the BJs don't get to him early, he'll even the series.
