    SEATTLE MARINERS NEWS CLIPS February 26, 2011 Smoak’s days of being a surprise about over Posted on February 25, 2011 by John Hickey SportsPressNW.com PEORIA, AZ – At this time last year, Justin Smoak was working out about 10 miles down the road in the Texas Rangers’ spring training camp in Surprise. And there were not going to be any surprises in his Surprise sojourn. He was coming off his first full year in the Texas organization, he’d only played 54 games at Triple-A and the Rangers’ offense seemed set. So in the first week of March, he was reassigned to the club’s minor league organization and he prepared for a full season at Triple-A. Then the surprises started happening, and they’ve never really stopped. Three weeks into the season, the Rangers found themselves in need of a left-hander with power who could play first base. On April 23, Smoak, a switch-hitter with most of his power from the left side, was called up. He struggled a bit, but he was basically a regular in the lineup of a team in first place in the American League West. He played 70 games for the Rangers, hit .209 and hit eight homers in 235 at-bats. Just when it seemed the April surprise might lead to a date in the postseason, fate jumped up and smacked Smoak again on July 9. The Rangers sent him and three Texas minor leaguers – pitchers Josh Lueke and Blake Beavan and infielder Matt Lawson — to Seattle with the Mariners surrendering pitchers Cliff Lee and Mark Lowe in return.

  • FOUR DECADES of SEATTLE MARINERS BASEBALL Each Month During the 2017 Season, Mariners Magazine Will Highlight a Different Era to Celebrate the Club’S 40Th Anniversary
    FOUR DECADES OF SEATTLE MARINERS BASEBALL Each month during the 2017 season, Mariners Magazine will highlight a different era to celebrate the club’s 40th Anniversary. In this issue, we’ll take a look at the 1977 through 1983 seasons. (Part 1 of 6) By Mike Gastineau The first game in Seattle Mariners history was played on April 6, 1977, in front of a sellout crowd of 57,762. In an historic twist Diego Segui was the Opening Day starting pitcher for the Mariners. Eight years earlier, on October 1, 1969, Segui pitched the 9th inning of what would be the final game in the Seattle Pilots history. He gave up a run that tied the game but got the win when the Pilots scored in their half of the inning. His luck was not as good in 1977 as the Angels chased him in the 4th inning of a 7-0 loss. The opening night defeat aside, when the Seattle Mariners arrived on the baseball scene in April of 1977 AL West titles in 1976.

    SENATE RESOLUTION 8667 By Senators Oke, McCaslin, Fraser, Schmidt, McAuliffe, Kohl-Welles, Spanel, Haugen, Eide, Zarelli, Rasmussen, Franklin, Johnson and Roach WHEREAS, Edgar Martinez was born in New York City on January 2, 1963, grew up playing baseball with his brother and neighborhood friends in Dorado, Puerto Rico, and attended American College in Puerto Rico; and WHEREAS, Edgar Martinez was nineteen years old when he signed with the Seattle Mariners as an amateur free agent on September 12, 1982; and WHEREAS, When Edgar Martinez was a skinny twenty-year-old with the Mariners' Class A team in Bellingham in 1983, he hit only .173 and was better known for his glove than his bat; and WHEREAS, Edgar Martinez endured several more seasons in the minors before he made his major league debut in 1987, ironically as a pinch runner; and WHEREAS, Edgar's first big-league hit was a triple, proving to newer Mariners' fans that he was a fast baserunner early in his Seattle career; and WHEREAS, Edgar Martinez became Seattle's everyday third baseman in 1990 and responded by hitting .302 that season and .307 in 1991; and WHEREAS, Edgar Martinez made his American League All-Star debut in 1992, a season in which he was crowned American League batting champion with a .343 average; and WHEREAS, A severely pulled hamstring in a 1993 preseason exhibition game in Vancouver, B.C., caused Edgar to miss most of that season and forced him to transform himself from an able third baseman into the greatest designated hitter in history; and WHEREAS, Edgar Martinez helped keep baseball alive in Seattle in 1995 by delivering arguably the biggest hit in Mariners' history, a game-winning double ripped down the left-field line in the bottom of the eleventh inning of the fifth and final game of the American League Divisional Series against the New York Yankees, knocking in Joey Cora and Ken Griffey, Jr.
