Sad day for the M's and all of Seattle.

R.I.P Rick.

I used to catch bags of peanuts from him back in the 'dome years and on in to the Safe.

If you could see him, all one had to do was yell out "Hit me, Rick!" and he'd behind-the-back toss you bag of nuts from what seemed like miles away. Bag always seemed to hit you right in your hands, too.

He was a Seattle Icon and a hell of a nice guy. He will be missed by many.
