From what little information we have (mostly verbal accounts) the winter of 1818 was punishingly cold out here but not very snowy.
Also summer of 1816 was historically cool and wet/stormy. A major Potomac flood year.
Mariners lead the AL West by 9 games.
Largest division lead in all of baseball and our biggest since the end of the 2001 season.
Imagine if we had even an AVERAGE offense.
