Mariners Mondays is back on ROOT SPORTS tonight at 7:00 pm as we revisit some of the most significant moments in Mariners history. First up — a pair of no-hitters in 2012: Félix Hernández’s perfect game vs. the Rays on Aug. 15 and a combined no-no against the Dodgers on June 8.

August 15, 2012 was, as Dave Niehaus would say, “a Chamber of Commerce day.” Sunny skies, 79 degrees. A bit of a breeze. The roof was open at Safeco Field (now known as T-Mobile Park), as Félix took the mound against the Tampa Bay Rays.
