When I think of Miami, I always think of the Golden Girls because while the show takes place almost entirely inside the main characters’ home, it manages to still convey an unmistakable sense of place. So perhaps it’s unsurprising that when watching this afternoon’s tilt between the Seattle Mariners and the Miami Marlins, I couldn’t stop hearing the Golden Girls’ theme song on a loop in my head, Cynthia Fee’s banger cover of Andrew Gold’s “Thank You for Being a Friend.” But maybe that’s also because it was the ethos that the Mariners brought to the game.
