Notes from Jerry Dipoto’s media availability, 1/19/21

For the fourth straight year in a row, there is no Mariners FanFest*, although at least this year the reason is understandable (pandemic!) rather than “the field is too torn up from that time we hosted the Holiday Hobnailed Clog Team Winter Extravaganza.” (*Technically there was a FanFest in 2019, but it was a scaled-down version that was appended to some exhibition games and not the immersive experience of previous FanFests.)

Instead the Mariners are offering a virtual experience (called the “Baseball Bash”) where fans can log on to the Mariners’ various social channels and sit in on media availability or moderated chats with players and staff.
