Natural disaster in Japan over-shadows baseball and everyday life...

The images of devastation after the earthquake and tsunami are sobering to say the least...
It's times like these when we are shocked into realizing how much we take for granted and how blessed and lucky so many of us are.  Whether it's the basics of the roof over our head, food on our table and a safe commute to work or the luxuries like cuddling up in our favorite comfy chair to listen to a spring training game on the radio and being able to read and/or blog online about the young ones development veterans getting in their work.

Official statement from the Mariners on the events in Japan

The Mariners would like to join with people from around the world in extending our sympathy to the many families affected by the devastating earthquake and tsunami centered in Sendai.
The Mariners and the city of Seattle have a long and close relationship with the people of Japan. Particularly close to all of us here at the Mariners are the many Nintendo employees and their families in Kyoto, Tokyo and other parts of Japan and the many, many Mariners fans all across the country. Our thoughts and best wishes are with the families as they face this great challenge.
~ Howard Lincoln, Seattle Mariners Chairman & Chief Executive Officer
