The RBI Club is about Real Baseball Involvement, behind the scenes information is shared at the monthly gatherings. Members and attendees have the ability to ask questions of special guest speakers and gain new insights on the decisions that impact the team and learn about special kids coming up through the system. RBI Club has also worked with Mariners players and broadcasters to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars to benefit charities throughout the Pacific Northwest.
