| Even though he broke into baseball in 1987 with the New York Yankee's Jay Buhner only bleeds Mariner blood and he will be the first to tell you that. |
| 14 seasons he spent with the Mariners, and on December 14th, Jay Cambell Buhner hung up his cleats for the last time as a Mariner RF. |
| Many were doubtful that Jay would even make it back for the 2001 season because of a career threatening foot injury that occured in Spring Training of 2001 but Jay over came the odds and returned to be part of the magic. |
| Jay is also a memeber of the 300 homerun club and the unoffical memeber of the "Take your hands off me Arod" Club. Though he wont admit it. |

| Do you think that we will ever forget Jay? What will Safeco and the Mariners be without Buhner Buzz Night, the night where thousands of fans flocked in to get their head shaved by Buhner and his crew. Though one little fan didnt like his hair, that fan being Chase, Jay's son. |

| On April 2nd 2002, Jay will be honoured at 'Jay Buhner Night ' where I am sure that his number will be retired and will go down in history as a Mariner that patroled RF or as the fans affectionatly call it the "Bone Yard" but I think that he has passed it down to Ichiro and it is now the " Bone Yard / Area 51 " |
