T-MOBILE PARK — Hey everyone, it’s your pal Matthew. Tonight was hilarious.
I had not willingly given the Seattle Mariners money in quite some time, but on Tuesday night, the weather was nice, it was one of the team’s BECU value games, and Fernando Tatís Jr. was 20 minutes away from where I live. When a confluence of circumstances like this presents itself, you have to pounce. While it’s not what most people would call “smart” or “healthy” to spend an entire night drinking overpriced beer and shouting into the vast expanse of a T-Mobile Tuesday, I figured that was a better alternative to doing it from my couch, or at the local bar, or quite literally anywhere else in one of America’s most vibrant cities.
