Wishing for nothing but the absolute worst for this ownership group.

This is what baseball is all about: The people, the relationships, the time before, between, and after pitches.

Fantastic work!

This reminds me of my dad, a good, steadfast man who was largely unsung by the world.

May Mr. Dobbins' memory be a blessing.

Thanks for posting this.

Thanks for this.
Gus was a champion.

As an Oakland native, this bums me out all over again. Still a nice read though. Thanks,

Great piece, Molly.

I worked for the Mariners in the late 90's/early 00's. The game day staff/greeters/elevator operators were some of my favorite people.

I felt normal bursting into tears over Gus dying because Kotsay burst into tears saying goodbye to him.

There was a lovely man that used to work the media entrance at SAFECO Field. His name was Rem. He'd been through some stuff, and every single game he showed up with a smile. It's been over 20 years and I still think of him.

@darthbluesky.bsky.social Darth the two men I shadowed at the Oakland coliseum last September have both died.

I cannot believe it
