This season was a bit of a downer for the Mariners given expectations, but as a season-ticket holder I still enjoyed plenty of memorable moments.

A reminder of one of them arrived in the mail over the weekend: the Topps NOW cards commemorating Cal Raleigh’s three-homer game last month.

Did I buy them partly because I hoped to spot myself in the background - Row 21 on the third-base side? Yes. Yes, I did. :-)
