Seattle Mariners’ playoff tickets are selling as hot as the team has played in recent weeks.

“Those tickets went within minutes of our public on-sale offering at 12 o’clock yesterday (Thursday),” Adam Gresch, Senior Manager of Communication for the Seattle Mariners, said.

Gresch warned people about buying tickets from secondary markets.

“I think it’s just important that fans make sure they’re using verified resellers,” Gresch said. “Not things like Craigslist or Facebook Marketplace, where there is no verification process.”

The first two games, in the best-of-five American League Division Series (ALDS), are set for Seattle on October 4 and 5. The next two games will be played away. If a Game 5 is needed, it’ll be played in Seattle on October 10.

“If we were to advance from the division series, tickets would go on sale for the championship series at that time, and then same goes for the World Series,” Gresch said.

Seattle Mariners’ merch going fast

If you want to wear official Mariners’ playoff merchandise, you’ll need to act quickly, too.

Gresch said both a postseason T-shirt and a division championship tee went on sale as soon as the Mariners made the playoffs.

“Both options sold out within minutes of going on sale at our team stores,” he said.

Gresch said a small restock was expected Friday with a larger shipment arriving Saturday.

The Mariners Team Stores sell the official MLB merchandise, but not a shirt that’s getting catcher Cal Raleigh some attention.

Raleigh presents signed bat to man who caught historic home run

He was spotted wearing it as he presented a signed bat to Glenn Mutti-Driscoll, who caught Raleigh’s historic 60th home run of the season and then handed it to a young fan.

Photos showed Raleigh flanked by members of Mutti-Driscoll’s family. Raleigh, wearing a shirt with the words “PHO KIT” surrounded by images of ingredients for the Vietnamese noodle soup.

Pronouncing those words, together, sounds similar to a colorful phrase Raleigh uttered after the Mariners secured a postseason wild card berth.

“Our players like to have fun with some of the jokes they have inside of the clubhouse,” Gresch said diplomatically. “I’m just glad that our guys are able to show their personalities and connect with our fans.”

Raleigh also connected with the young fan who ended up with his 60th home-run ball. The boy agreed to trade the ball for a signed bat, tickets to a future game, and a chance to watch batting practice.
