'Seat Fleet' awaits as Mariners host Rangers
The Seattle Mariners might be in last place in the American League West and in the midst of a rebuilding project, but they're unofficially in first place in the major leagues in attendance.
When the Mariners returned this week to open a five-game homestand that continues Friday night with the Texas Rangers in town, they were greeted by more than 13,000 cardboard cutouts of fans in the stands, spanning nearly the entire lower bowl of T-Mobile Park and most of the second deck in left field.
