This is not an endorsement of arson | The History of the Seattle Mariners, a Dorktown special

We mean it. “Arson will get you a baseball team” is not the lesson here. In fact, there is no lesson at all. There is only the Seattle Mariners, who in their early years did nothing but screw around and play out some of the weirdest stories in the history of baseball. Welcome to episode one of our six-part series, “The History of the Seattle Mariners.”

This series is written, narrated and produced by Jon Bois and Alex Rubenstein.

CORRECTIONS:

• 1:58 – Emil Sick’s name is pronounced “EE-mil,” not “e-MIL.”
• 20:36 – Jon got mixed up here and added an unnecessary arrow. Contrary to the diagram, Gulden did not get traded back to the Mariners an additional time.
