PEORIA, Ariz. — Forget bat flips. Kyle Seager and the Mariners have crafted a few new ideas on how to celebrate the long ball this season.
The Mariners released their latest batch of commercials, filmed each season during Spring Training, on Wednesday morning. The four commercials — and a blooper reel — feature several Seattle stars imagining new home run celebrations, training for a jog around the bases and getting ready for the next appearance of the Mariners ace.
“They are fun to do, they are,” Seager said.
“Beyond the Flip” shows Seager — who knocked in 30 homers for Seattle last season — outfielder Leonys Martin and catcher Mike Zunino imagining some fresh concepts to kick off a home run jaunt.
