So far, so good for the Mariners. The M’s are scoring a few runs and playing .500 ball after winning their home opener over the Astros Monday night. With baseball on the minds of many, here are two State Archives photos of a few famous Mariners from yesteryear. The top photo (from the Archives' Washington State Patrol collection) shows Edgar Martinez signing autographs in the Governor’s Office during his 2005 visit to Olympia, soon after he retired. The bottom photo (from the House collection) features Ken Griffey Jr. and Jay Buhner appearing in the House in 1995 during the 1994-95 Major League Baseball players strike.
