The Mariners are back tonight for the start of their biggest series of the season.

The M’s are hosting the Astros in a battle for first-place in the AL West.

Seattle currently leads Houston by a single game after nearly fumbling their 10-game division lead with an unsuccessful road trip out East and three straight losses to the Angels going into the All-Star break.

The M’s are asking anyone headed to tonight’s game to make sure you can access your tickets and recommend adding them to your Apple or Google wallets as soon as possible in light of today’s cyber outage.

Luis Castillo is taking the mound for tonight’s series opener.

Coverage begins at 6:00 and first pitch is at 7:10 on KPUG.

 

The University of Washington just earned recognition for its iconic football-watching environment.

ESPN ranked Husky Stadium sixth in their list of Top 25 college football stadiums in the country.

They said the views of the Seattle skyline, Lake Washington, Mount Rainier and a pair of mountain ranges makes Husky Stadium the premier college football bucket-list trip on the West Coast.

Tiger Stadium at LSU earned the top spot in the rankings, followed by UCLA’s Rose Bowl Stadium and Michigan’s “The Big House.”

Wazzu’s Martin Stadium placed 39th in the vote by ESPN’s college football writers.

 

The Seattle Storm are off until mid-August, but you can still catch some of their players in action in the meantime.

Two of Seattle’s top players are facing off in tomorrow’s WNBA All-Star Game.

Former MVP Nneka Ogwumike is playing for Team WNBA and the team’s leading scorer Jewell Loyd is playing for Team USA.

Looking ahead to the Olympics, Loyd will represent the United States, while Ezi Magbegor and Sami Whitcomb will both be suiting up for Australia.

 

The Bellingham Bells battled back to beat the Cascade Collegiate League Showcase Team 7-4 yesterday.

The Bells fell to an early 3-0 deficit, but rallied back to tie the game before scoring three runs in a critical eighth inning. 

All-Star shortstop Roman Martin came up clutch, hitting a late 2-run single to secure the win for the Bells.

They’re back in West Coast League play tonight, as they host the Port Angeles Lefties in the first of a three-game series.

First pitch is at 6:35 from Joe Martin Field.
