All radios and TVs are tuned to the baseball game.
The Mariners are winning, every day it is the same.
They are playing at the homefield to yet another sellout.
The Mariners have taught us what baseball's all about.

We're caught up in the magic, you have to love those guys.
No inflated ego among them, they are heroes in our eyes.
They're like a well oiled fine machine, every player does his part.
Hardly a soul in Washington hasn't taken them to his heart.

They have won one hundred two games this early in the season.
We're hoping for the World Series, that's certainly within reason.
But if for all our wishing, they fail to win the prize.
We've already had our money's worth, and we all love those guys.
