In case you missed it, the Mariners played a typically wild spring training game against the White Sox yesterday, losing to those pesky Sox by a 12-10 score.

Whenever the Mariners play the White Sox, I can’t help but think of my parents’ friends Bill and Karen, who have remained diehard fans of the Sox through their absolute garbage play over the last decade. Shout out to them; I hope they enjoy Roch Cholowsky in a few years.

Do you have any special connections to non-Mariners teams through friends or family? Do you keep up with those teams any differently as a result?
