Mariners’ Playoff Push May Force Seahawks to Change Kickoff Times

UPDATE: Seattle’s sports landscape is facing a scheduling crunch as the Mariners’ recent success in clinching the American League West title could disrupt the Seahawks’ game times for at least two upcoming home games. Officials report that both games, set for October 5 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and October 20 against the Houston Texans, may need to be rescheduled due to potential playoff clashes.

The Mariners may host critical playoff games at their nearby T-Mobile Park, just a stone’s throw away from the Seahawks’ Lumen Field—a mere one-tenth of a mile apart. This proximity means that simultaneous events could lead to severe logistical challenges, including overwhelming traffic and potential overcrowding in the area.

If Major League Baseball confirms playoff game times on Friday, October 5, the Seahawks’ kickoff at 1:05 PM local time could be pushed back by as much as 90 to 150 minutes. Seattle officials are closely monitoring the situation as MLB’s decisions could directly affect the Seahawks’ schedule.

A similar, albeit less likely, conflict looms for the October 20 Monday night game against the Texans, which is part of a doubleheader on ESPN scheduled to start at 7:00 PM local time. If the Mariners are slated for a critical Game 7 of the AL Championship Series that day, it could require a similar adjustment, with the Seahawks potentially starting their game around 9:30 PM.

In October 2022, both teams faced a scheduling crisis that was averted when the Mariners’ playoff run ended before a conflict could arise. However, this year presents a different scenario, with the Mariners aiming for their first playoff win since 2001.

As Seattle grapples with this unprecedented situation, fans are left to wonder how the potential changes will impact their game-day experience. The stakes are high for both teams, and the city is preparing for the possibility of a thrilling yet chaotic sports week.

Stay tuned for updates as MLB officials prepare to announce the playoff schedule, which will dictate the next steps for the Seahawks and their fans.
