Man, oh man. I miss those days. I remember EXACTLY where I was watching that inning. (eleventh) I was at South Center mall, and they had a TV on in one of the stores display window, and a small crowd included myself watched how it all unfolded. With the hit by Griffey, and then Edgar gaming winning hit that followed was absolutely AMAZING. We all were just screaming and having a good time. That was a great moment in my life, and I was probably around 18 at the time. Moments like that is what made baseball fun for me. So hopefully, the Mariners can put together a team that works well together and also win together so in the future, another young kid could have great memories the way I do and did.

One thing I’ve always hated about ballgames is that fandom often transcends just respecting what all of the athletes are putting on the line. That’s what I love about a good ufc fight. You might hate the way a man or woman decides to carry themselves as a pro fighter, but when you see what they’re willing to give when it comes to fight night, often times you’ll appreciate and respect people that you thought you couldn’t stand.

But the Ms swept the Yankees and we loved it. That 5th game was most fun game I've ever witnessed. It looked like like Griffey made up his mind halfway to second base that he was going to score. I honestly believe that I never saw him run faster. Edgar in my mind was and still is the greatest Mariner. Thanks to whoever posted. Great memories!

Just an absolute beast of a pitch to a guy already running scared who’s 2 for 16 against the guy, and that was the early Johnson. Not the 94-96 Johnson. But man, this game Johnson just ruled! Was it all for nothing? Yes and no. I mean they didn’t get past the Indians, but they did beat Griffey’s rivals from back when he was a kid. And this was the series that decided if Mariners get a new stadium. Their roof on this one fell down a month prior. And Without a new stadium they leave Seattle for ever. The vote for taxes to pay for it was so close but lost, and it was winning these play offs that had the mayor call for a special meeting to pay for it anyways. So without these play offs we don’t get ichiro, we don’t get Griffey back in his last season, Ichiro’s dream. And we don’t get one of the worst baseball squads to continue for the next 25 years. Idk they had so many crazy things happen in their franchise history, but no World Series. And yet for the fans, they don’t care, they love this team and will always remember the mid 90’s and early 2000’s Mariners, but everyone will always remember the 1995 Seattle a Mariners, the most winning team in history at this point.

Was at this game. Best sporting event I've ever been to.

Why can't sport broadcast have these kind of intros again?

[@MeneTekelUpharsin]

I know. I love the intros. It's like you're watching a real show.

[@MH3GL]

Because people would actually enjoy them. Can't have that anymore...

ill never forget that game(Griffey was my fav player)and my cousin tried to change the channel on me right before that final play lol.i remember having to snatch the remote forecfully out of her hand lol

Remember listening to this on the radio in the car when I was 13 on the way back from a Detroit Lion game, I was going nuts my dad had to settle me day. I loved Griffey, Jr, he was and still is one of my favorite players, one of the smoothest swings ever.

[@SRP3572]

I remember watching this game with my mom and she went nuts when Edgar hit that ball and drove in Griffey Jr

[@kingofny6933]

Brent's call is so pure and filled with real excitement. He's one of the greatest!!!!

[@vaibanez17]

Edgar Martinez is one of the best players of my lifetime and to see him not get the HOF votes he deserves is atrocious. He's a DH? So what! If a position exists, why can't that position be in the HOF?

[@NC-ek7ec]

I agree, he was a terrific hitter in this series and very consistent throughout his career. If they let great hitters that were terrible fielders, why not let Edgar in?

[@wheelinthesky300]

It's time to recognize the DH isn't going anywhere. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the National League adopts it. Edgar should be in the HOF

[@andrea-sz1ix]

vaibanez17 18 years he played and only 2200 hits,thats why hes not in the hall.... mvp awards = zero...pennants= zero...

[@vaibanez17]

Edgar Martinez only played 12 full seasons, but those 12 seasons were spectacular. Edgar put up .324/37/145 in his age 37 season! In 1993, Edgar had the same amount of runs scored (121) as Albert Belle who hit 50 home runs, Edgar only hit 29. Edgar Martinez and Frank Thomas were the best all-around hitters of the 1990s.

[@robertburklund3856]

NC37 wasnt even about about bein terrible,,he was average,,,ubt his Hamstring and the turf that did him in....and a bad field that popped it that wasnt i think even the kingdome.

[@autumnskye5882]

I went to four games in this season. The noise was monstrous 😄 warm up to all Seattle sports.

Great great call from Musberger! I had no idea he did this game

Search Dave Niehaus calling this game. so much better.

[@BigRedMachine006]

This guy almost makes my wish Joe Buck did it back then. Almost.

He almost became the voice of CBS's MLB coverage in the early 90's right before he was fired and replaced with Jack Buck.
