Seattle Mariners Opening Day in Japan

The Seattle Mariners had their season opener in Japan last night and beat the Oakland A's 3-1 in extra innings! Ichiro went 4-for-5 in the game and tied Ken Griffey Jr. for opening day hits. Dustin Ackley, who went to school at UNC (whoot whoot) went 2-for-5 driving in the Mariners first 2 RBI's of the season and had a solo home run to right. King Felix, who had a small King's Court in attendance, pitched 8 innings with 6 strikeouts, 5 hits, and 1 run. I'm excited for the season and hope baseball is on your to do list this summer, I know it's on mine!
