The right handed phenom who has pitched his entire career with the Mariners, a team that never made the post season during his tenure.
Hernandez, known to M's fans by his first name pitched the Mariners only perfect game. He has also won the Cy Young Award for best pitcher in 2010.
He had a section of the Mariner stadium full of fan's known as the King's Court.
In recent years, his production has fallen, last year, he was 8-14 on a team with a winning record. It was obvious that his best years were behind him.
Still, we remember the great years and we salute a player whose loyalty to the team, may have cost him the chance to play in a World Series. Congrats Felix!
The guy with the beard in the picture looks like Silent Bob.
