The right field corner at T-Mobile Park is an odd little place, with its Grandma’s Attic-esque corner and jigsaw puzzle shape. With no bullpen or batter’s eye garden, right fielders at T-Mobile are subject to the cheers and boos of the crowd with little buffer zone, sometimes literally having to get up close and personal with fans as they try to track balls into the right field corner.
It’s also a great place to hit home runs, if that’s a thing you’re into, which the 2021 Mariners are less often inclined to than one would like. Tonight a majority of the game’s action was concentrated in right field, although more often it was the Red Sox enjoying the area’s peculiarities like a fun haunted house, and the Mariners just out-and-out haunted by it.
