There are seasons to every matchup in baseball. The winter of the Seattle Mariners and Kansas City Royals surely drew its curtains in the late 00s and early 10s, with both clubs exchanging suspect veterans with little consequence like flea market curios. Spring arose in the middle of last decade, with the two clubs putting together competitive rosters and KC running their best two seasons in 30 years against the closest thing to contenders the M’s had seen since the early stages of Ichiro’s immigration to the upper echelons of MLB performance. The past several seasons, however, have featured feisty, flummoxing matchups.
At last clashing as notables, Mariners fall to Royals 8-4
