The Mariners have the day off today before beginning their next series against the Rockies.

The M’s own a 9-10 record on the heels of a series sweep against the Reds.

Their pitching staff was lights out, allowing just five runs over those three games.

Julio Rodriguez is rebounding from his early-season struggles, he had five hits against Cincinnati.

Seattle’s bats have improved from the beginning of this season, but are still tied with the Dodgers for the most strikeouts in the league despite playing two less games.

The M’s currently sit a game and a half back from the first-place Texas Rangers in the AL West.

They’ll look to extend their three-game win streak in the Mile-High City this weekend against a weakened Rockies team.

Colorado was dealt a blow when they announced that starting outfielder Kris Bryant has been placed on the 10-day injured list.

They’re also tied for the second-worst record in the league at 4-15.

Coverage for tomorrow’s game begins at 4:30 and first pitch is at 5:40 on KPUG.

 

The Kraken are back tonight for the final time this season.

They’re on the road facing the Minnesota Wild.

The Wild took both games earlier this season, outscoring the Kraken 8-2.

Seattle will look to snap their four-game losing streak and go into the offseason on a high note.

Coverage begins at 3:30 and puck drops at 4:00 on KPUG.

 

Meanwhile, a new hockey team is coming to Salt Lake City.

The NHL has approved the sale and relocation of the Arizona Coyotes to Utah.

The change will take effect next season.

The team is being bought by Ryan and Ashley Smith, who also own the NBA’s Utah Jazz.

The Coyotes were established in 1972 as the Winnipeg Jets before moving to Phoenix in 1996.

The new team’s name has not been decided yet.

 

And the Western Washington University softball team is closing out the home portion of its regular season.

They’re hosting rival Central Washington at Viking Field tomorrow and Saturday in a pair of doubleheaders for Senior Weekend.

It won’t be the final home game for seniors though; the Viks are hosting the GNAC Softball Championships right here in Bellingham on May 2-4.

The 11th nationally ranked Vikings are riding a program record 17-game win streak.

They’re also just two wins away from reaching the school’s single-season record of 36 wins.

Admission and parking is both free for all Viking home games this season.
