The Mariners are the AL West’s newest division leader after last night’s win.

They beat the Texas Rangers 4-0 thanks to nearly seven shutout innings from Logan Gilbert.

The M’s held the Rangers to just three hits in the win.

Julio Rodriguez got his first home run of the season and Cal Raleigh added his fourth homer in five games to give the team an early lead.

Seattle moved half a game ahead of Texas for first place in the AL West.

Bryce Miller is on the mound for the M’s tonight in the middle game of their series against the Rangers, looking to get his fourth straight win.

That would be tied for the most among all pitchers in the major leagues.

The NFL Draft is almost upon us.

The draft takes place in Detroit tomorrow night with no shortage of stakes for fans here in Washington.

The Seahawks will look to build on their young core with the 16th overall pick in the first draft following the Pete Carroll-era in Seattle.

Wide receiver Rome Odunze has been projected to go as high as fifth overall.

The Chicago Bears will kick things off from Detroit with the number one pick.

A pair of Huskies football players are facing more legal troubles.

Tylin “Tybo” Rogers and Diesel Gordon were charged after allegedly assaulting a bicyclist in Seattle last month.

The Seattle Police Department says the cyclist claims the players yelled at him from a car and he responded by flipping them off and spitting at the driver.

He alleges that the players then followed him before assaulting him, breaking his bike and spitting on him at least eight times.

Rogers already faces separate charges after allegedly raping two women.

The school says that both Rogers and Gordon are currently suspended from the team.

 

And Western Washington University’s golf teams found plenty of success at the GNAC Championships yesterday.

The women placed second after the two-day conference tournament in Coeur d’Alene.
