Baseball season may be long gone and our hearts still full of bitter disappointment, but there’s always our ‘79 Mariners. So let’s indulge in some M’s nostalgia, shall we? Like the
1980 season, they didn’t fair all that well — winning 67 games and losing 95. On display here are a few scans from the one dollar 1979 souvenir program. You’ll recognize your favorite players — among them the one and only
Mario Mendoza once again. Click on the images for larger versions. Blast! Now I’m hungry for a red hot. P.S. I gave the Vintage Seattle site design a spitshine. Here’s the
old vs
new. Thumbs up / thumbs down?
