Some History
This home uniform for the Mariners first season featured a trident that formed the M in Mariners across the chest, while the uniform was a 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 Mariners began playing their first season in the Kingdome, which was known as a hitters ballpark. They would call the Kingdome home until 1999, when the Mariners moved across the street to Safeco Field, which featured a retractable roof. In this first season they were led at the plate by right fielder Leroy Stanton who hit .275 and led the team with 27 home runs, while tying for the team lead with 90 RBI. They would finish the season with a 64-98 record.
