Introduction: The Seattle Mariners

     The Seattle Mariners are the Major League Baseball (MLB) American professional baseball team whose home is in Seattle, Washington. They compete in the American League West Division. The team joined the American League as an expansion team in 1977. They played their home games in the Kingdome between 1977-1999 which they shared with the Seattle Seahawks, before they moved to their new home ballpark T-Mobile Park (1999-present).
     Since 1977 the Seattle Mariners have won three West Division titles in 1995, 1997, and 2001. In 2001 the Mariners won 116 games which set the American League record for the most wins in a single season and tied the 1906 Chicago Cubs for the Major League record for most wins in a single season. The Mariners have never played in a World Series, nor won a conference championship. The Mariners now hold the longest playoff drought in all of the four major North American professional sports, having not qualified for any playoffs since 2001.
      It should be noted that in the early years baseball teams used pennants rather than flags (hence the practice of calling championships winning the pennant) and there were a host of unofficial manufacturer's variants of these and later fan flags marketed for the Mariners and their fans. They included flags, banners, and pennants too numerous to all be shown here.

Seattle Mariners 1987-1992

As illustrated here with their 1987-1992 primary team logo, and perhaps encouraged by the Seattle fan's habit of referring to their team simply as the "M's", the "M" trident was dropped. The team colors still remained royal blue, gold and white. They would adopted new team colors - Navy blue, northwest green (teal), and silver in 1993.

Seattle Mariners Yacht Flags and Pennants

   
images from Pete Loeser, 27 May 2019

For those baseball fans who own boats and want to display their team loyalty afloat, these flags are available for them. The flags take the form of either a broad pennant or a square boat flag with either a cap or team logo near the hoist. Each uses the individual team's colors in their designs.
Note: Because of the small size of these nautical broad pennants. usually about a foot tall (approximately 30.48 centimeters), they have also gained popularity as "golf cart" flags. It should also be noted that a broad pennant, or any other flag shape, is only called a "burgee" if it designates an organized boating club.
