Do you think it’s frustrating being a Phillies fan? Well, it is! It’s extremely frustrating! But this week, the Phillies are travelling to Seattle to take on a team that has been even more frustrating to its fans, at least as far as playoff success goes.
Phillies fans can at least look back on seven World Series appearances and two titles. The Mariners have zero titles to their credit and are the only team to never even play in the World Series. Being the first to 10,000 losses doesn’t seem so bad now, does it?
Record: 13-16 (Third place in American League West)
The last time they met
These teams last met up in 2017 with a pair of two-game series at each other’s stadiums.
