Good morning Jack and everyone on the net. Yes, I do have my coffee and usually I wait until a little later in the net to check in. But, and I never liked being the first person so I waited until someone else checked in and that would have been Keith of course who also normally checks in later. But yeah, to answer the question, yeah it was 1995. The Mariners got to the American League Championship Series which is where we're now going to face the Toronto Blue Jays. So that should be exciting. So apparently the Mariners are the only Major League Baseball team that has never been to the World Series. Now the Mariners are a young team, I think they started in the late 70s. So I mean there are these teams that have been around for like well over 100 years. So you know we haven't had as much time to do it but hopefully this will be the one. But yeah last night I was simultaneously listening to Rebecca's net and listening to the game. It was like you know two different radios on either ear. And I just knew that as soon as I check in the game would end or there would be that final, there would be that run that ends the game. And sure enough I get into Rebecca's net, I think it was a little after 10. I check in and then I unkey and turn my regular AM radio on and I get it's ears on. So I knew that it was, that they had won. It was at the bottom of the 15th inning. And yeah you know it's interesting because the Mariners do have a history of really long games in the post season. Like back in 1995 when we did get into the, did move to the championship series there was a 15 inning game against the Yankees. And then just a few years ago there was that 18 inning game where we lost to the Houston Astros. And yeah that was, those games are so painful. It's nice when you are in the, you're the home team because you're at the bottom of the inning. So when it's tied all, like you're in a position to, like you just need that one point and boom you win. But if you're at the top, you're the visitor, you're at the top of the inning or the other team is up there. If they score then you have to score when you're in the bottom of that inning. So anyway, KG7, ODB, back to net. Thanks for watching.
