Some History

After a brief stint of Major League baseball in Seattle with the Pilots in 1969, (at the end of the season they would move to Milwaukee to become the Brewers), Seattle was again awarded a new team for the 1977 season. The Mariners joined the American League West division as an expansion team and finished its inaugural season in sixth place out of seven teams, with a 64-98 record.

The Mariners first road uniform was a light blue double-knit style that most major league teams succumbed to during the 70's and early 80's. It was a pullover style, made of stretchy, synthetic material. The pants were called Sans-a-Belts because the elasticized waistline eliminated the need for a belt. The trim around the collar, sleeves and belt were all gold, white and dark blue.
