Buhner's time with the Mariners was marked by several standout seasons, particularly in the mid-1990s when he was a key contributor to the team's success. He was known for his ability to hit home runs, consistently ranking among the league leaders in that category. In 1995, Buhner played a pivotal role in helping the Mariners reach the postseason for the first time in franchise history, a moment that remains one of the most celebrated in Seattle sports. His leadership and clutch performances earned him a reputation as one of the most reliable players in the Mariners' lineup.
Over the course of his career, Buhner hit 310 home runs and drove in 965 RBIs, solidifying his place as one of the most productive power hitters of his era. He was also known for his defensive prowess, often making highlight-reel plays in right field with his strong throwing arm.
