KINGDOME
2010-08
This was the home field for the expansion Mariners of the American League from 1977-99. The Mariners' first game in their history was played here on April 6, 1977, against the California Angels and pitcher Frank Tanana, who prevailed, 7-0. Some other historic moments: Gaylord Perry won his 300th game, May 6, 1982; Ken Griffy, Jr. hit his first major league homer (on his first at-bat in the kingdome, on the first pitch), April 10, 1989; Griffy, Jr. tied the MLB record for consecutive home run games, July 28, 1993. He also is the Kingdome's all-time home run leader with 198 from 1989-99. Seattle fans likely remember the Mariners' most noteworthy victory here - Oct. 8, 1995, an 11-inning, 6-5 edging of the Yankees in the deciding game of the Division Series. Attendance was a raucous 57,411.
