The Easter bunny was good to the Mariners in their season opening road trip leaving them with a sweep of the Oakland A’s and a split with the Minnesota Twins. It’s also good seeing a true team effort with new manager Don Wakamatsu getting in everybody except Matt Tuiasosopo.

The Mariners are coming home with Ken Griffey Jr. likely to see a gala reception / celebration: Hall of Fame broadcaster Dave Niehaus will read "An Ode to Safeco Field," third baseman Adrian Beltre receives his second Gold Glove Award and Ichiro Suzuki receives his eighth. There will be a salute to the second World Baseball Classic with a "Parade of World Flags".

Can’t wait to see Ichiro who is currently on the DL get back into this lineup as well. It’s way too early to get too confident about anything, but hey, we couldn’t have scripted a better start. How’s your favorite MLB team doing?
