Seattle Mariners has introduced a new promotion designed to attract home-workers to afternoon games at T-Mobile Park.<\/p>\n
Work from the Ballpark Day was introduced for this week\u2019s game against Chicago White Sox, which started at 1.10pm in the Washington city. The Mariners said around 150 fans bought the special $50 tickets that included a designated entry point at the stadium and a special lunch menu. The fans could also bring a laptop and bag into the ballpark and take up a station in the venue\u2019s Hit it Here Caf\u00e9.<\/p>\n
Gregg Greene, the Mariners\u2019 senior vice-president of marketing, told MLB.com<\/a> that no other team in baseball has put on a ticket promotion of this type.<\/p>\n \u201cLooking at people coming out of the recovery, coming out of a pandemic, the number of folks that have gone back to work is still relatively low in the downtown core,\u201d Greene said. \u201cMore people are still working from home. \u2026 We have an opportunity here at the ballpark, midweek day game, a great space in the Hit It Here Cafe to give fans a chance to get out of the home office and get a different experience.<\/p>\n \u201cThe great thing about baseball is the different communities, the different neighbourhoods that you can create that fans create inside the ballpark, whether they do it themselves organically. They have to work. Everybody has to go to work. Why not do it at the ballpark? Come out here, have a great time and get a little work done.\u201d<\/p>\n Folks, we\u2019re firing up PowerPoint today. <\/p>\n It\u2019s Work from the Ballpark Day at @TMobilePark<\/a>, so we have to make it look like we\u2019re getting some work done\u2026 we\u2019ll see how this goes. Anyways, here\u2019s our starting lineup! pic.twitter.com\/NSMtS1q3qG<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Seattle Mariners (@Mariners) September 7, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Mariners said they would likely host another Work from the Ballpark Day next season.<\/p>\n Any organisations who bought more than 20 tickets obtained the rights to a scoreboard advertisement and two complimentary tickets to another Mariners regular season game.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, for any home supporters that did take their laptop to T-Mobile Park, the Mariners lost the game 9-6.<\/p>\n Image:<\/strong> Art Bromage<\/a>\u00a0from\u00a0Pixabay<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
