Veteran pitcher Gaylord Perry, known for his masterful command and notorious "spitball," joined the Seattle Mariners late in his illustrious career, playing for the team in 1982 and briefly in 1983. It was with the Mariners on May 6, 1982, that Perry achieved a remarkable milestone, earning his 300th career victory against the New York Yankees at the Kingdome, becoming the first pitcher in 19 years to reach that exclusive club. Although his time in Seattle was short, his presence brought significant attention to the young franchise, and his pursuit of 300 wins provided a memorable highlight for Mariners fans.
