Sundays Are For The Steelheads: African American Heritage Day

SUNDAYS ARE FOR THE STEELHEADS. Tomorrow, August 23rd is African American Heritage Day at T-Mobile Park, and you already know the Mariners will be dripped out in their iconic Steelheads Jerseys for Steelheads Sunday.

In partnership with Hey, Black Seattle! and Black-led non-profits and churches, the Mariners take on the Chicago Cubs tomorrow, paying homage to the legends from Pacific Northwest Black baseball as they have done every Sunday home game this season.

This Sunday is yet another celebration of community, defiance, and belonging. As the Seattle Mariners continue their 50th season, we at Converge Media are proud to have helped tell a story written in these streets long before the first pitch was thrown in a stadium. The rhythm of baseball in the Pacific Northwest was forged in the dust of the sandlots and the roar of a community claiming its rightful place in the sun.

Make sure you pull up to the game tomorrow:
