DK Metcalf is wearing a Mariners t-shirt at the podium, and says that he has gotten to know Julio Rodriguez over the past few months. They text each other now and then, including after games.
Metcalf’s shirt has Julio, Mitch Haniger, Ty France, and J.P. Crawford on it.

As a kid who grew up watching Huskies games with my dad, went to UW for college, and eagerly awaited the Apple Cup every year, this is a sad day.

In 1995, one of the top movies of the year was Toy Story. The M’s came from 13 games down that season to win the AL West.
This year, the top movie is “Barbie.”
Both movies are essentially about toys that come to life.
Could history be repeating itself? Who’s to say.
The Mariners are suddenly 2 games back of the Rangers in the AL West. They’ve gained 4 games in as many days. Wow.
