Q13 FOX is excited to welcome a new face to our sports team on this episode of Just A Bit Outside.

SEATTLE - The Seattle Mariners will increase seating capacity at T-Mobile Park to nearly 31,000 people for the upcoming home stand June 14-23, but most of those fans will be vaccinated.

The updated operations plan allows 26,265 tickets to be sold as vaccine only with no social distancing, the team says in a news release. The remaining capacity will be sold in socially distanced pods of 1-6 seats for a total of 4,680 seats. Total ballpark capacity under the approved plan is 30,945 out of 47,000.

Before the latest announcement, the Mariners had been allowing up to 14,000 fans at T-Mobile Park, including a vaccinated only section.

T-Mobile Park should be open at full capacity for games beginning July 2. Gov. Jay Inslee has said the state will be fully reopened by June 30.

Mariners season ticket holders get priority in selecting seats for the upcoming home stand. Single-game tickets will be available starting June 8.
