79 days to Opening Day

Thursday, April 5 is Opening Day for the Timber Rattlers at Fox Cities Stadium. That is 79 days from today.



The number 79 is represented by the 1995 Mariners. The team that rallied from 13 games behind the California Angels on August 2 to tie for the AL West title and win the playoff game.



The Mariners went 79-66 in that strike-shortened year, saved baseball in Seattle, and gave this lasting moment in the playoffs against the Yankees.
