Well, the "good ship Mariner" is sailing in Seattle and around the Pacific Northwest at this stage of the season, so fans want to see the club as much as possible.
And anytime Felix Hernandez pitches makes for compelling TV, but Saturday's matinee was not available anywhere. In fact, I didn't even see any highlights on ESPN.
That will only happen two more times this season, according to Brian Piper, communications coordinator for Fox Sports Northwest.
"There are national television restrictions on Saturday afternoon games due to FOX broadcastings agreement with MLB," Piper said via e-mail.
The two remaining blanks on the schedule both of them home games come Saturday, June 6 vs. Minnesota and Saturday, July 25 vs. Cleveland.
I've attached the complete Mariners/FSN TV schedule in a PDF for those who may want to print it out and stick it on the fridge.

The Americans opened the preseason with a 5-2 win over Everett. Goals by five different guys, and Ty Rimmer and Eric Comrie shared time in net.
Sure, it's just one game, against an Everett team that claims it's in a rebuilding mode. But a win is a win. It's the Portland Winterhawks on Saturday afternoon. The WHL website has all the preseason game sheets — this is a first, and a big help. Follow along.
Was nice to see the D-men get into the action with Mitch Topping and Michal Plutnar finding the net, and Zach Yuen assisting on the game's first goal — Justin Feser's shorty in the second period.
