Popular Former Seattle Mariners 3B Won't Return to Television Broadcasts in 2025

Within the story posted above, Jude said that Blowers had no comment on the matter. Blowers dealt with health issues last season, but his silence leads us to believe this decision is not related to that, though that is just speculation.

Now 59-years-old, Blowers spent 11 seasons in the big leagues with the New York Yankees, Mariners, Los Angeles Dodgers and Oakland Athletics. He actually had three separate stints with the Mariners: 1992-1995, 1997 and 1999.

A career .257 hitter, Blowers was part of the famed 1995 Mariners team that tracked down the Angels to win the American League West, and then beat the Yankees in a memorable ALDS. That was the first trip to the playoffs ever for the franchise and Blowers was a big part of it, hitting .257 with 23 homers and 96 RBI alongside Ken Griffey Jr., Jay Buhner, Edgar Martinez and Tino Martinez.

As Jude notes, Blowers isn't the only shakeup to the broadcasts this season: longtime play-by-play broadcaster Dave Sims has left for New York to become the lead broadcaster for the Yankees Radio Network (WFAN).

The Mariners open the regular season on March 27.
