The 1990 Seattle Mariners season was the 14th for the Seattle Mariners in Major League Baseball. Under second-year manager Jim Lefebvre, they finished fifth in the American League West at 77–85 (.475). It was the second-best record in the M's history up to that point in time; the win total was one behind the club record set in 1987.[1] The Mariners hit six grand slams, the most in MLB in 1990.[2]

Offseason

  • November 13, 1989: Jeff Schaefer was signed as a free agent by the Mariners.[3]
  • December 7, 1989: Pete O'Brien was signed as free agent by the Mariners.[4]

Regular season

  • June 2: Randy Johnson threw a no-hitter versus the Detroit Tigers,[5][6] the first for the franchise.[7] He was also the tallest pitcher (6 ft 10 in (2.08 m)) in Major League history to throw a no-hitter. It was the 2101st game in Mariners history, played on a Saturday night in the Kingdome.
  • September 14: Ken Griffey Sr. and Ken Griffey Jr. hit back-to-back home runs in the top of the first inning against the California Angels.[8] Through 2022, it remains the only occurrence of consecutive homers by a father and son in MLB history.
