What is T-Mobile Park?
[[File:SafecoFieldTop.jpg|thumb|T-Mobile Park]] '''T-Mobile Park''' is a [[baseball]] [[stadium|park]] in [[Seattle, Washington]]. It is the home field of the [[Seattle Mariners]] of [[Major League Baseball]]. It opened in 1999, and it replaced the Mariners' old stadium, the [[Kingdome]]. The stadium opened as '''Safeco Field''', with the locally based [[Safeco]] Insurance signing a 20-year contract to place its name on the stadium. With the contract ending after the 2018 season, Safeco chose not to renew it. The team then signed a new 25-year naming rights contract with wireless carrier [[T-Mobile US]], the main American arm of German telecom giant [[Deutsche Telekom]]. The new name took effect on January 1, 2019.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.mlb.com/news/mariners-rename-home-facility-t-mobile-park/c-302016148 |title=Mariners' home facility renamed T-Mobile Park |first=Greg |last=Johns |website=MLB.com |date=December 19, 2018 |accessdate=January 26, 2019}}</ref> == Sources == *''Green Cathedrals'', by Philip J.
