How a Baby Boom Is Fueling the Mariners’ Success

The Seattle Mariners’ 26-man squad boasts 14 fathers with kids aged three and under, and nine of them are first-time dads. The team is winning, they say, in part, because now there’s just a little bit more to life than baseball. Reporting for TODAY, NBC’s Morgan Chesky sits down with Emerson Hancock, Luke Raley, J.P. Crawford and Gabe Speier to talk about life in the clubhouse, from playpens to their new pastime of parenthood. #TODAYShow
