The Mariners are looking to tie their series against the Dodgers tonight after their offensive struggles returned in game one.

The M’s managed just a pair of hits in their 3-0 loss to LA last night.

Bryan Woo gave up two runs through six and one-third innings in the start, but Julio Rodriguez and Justin Turner were the only ones to back him up at the plate.

The Mariners’ road trip has been abysmal so far, sitting at 1-6 while scoring over three runs in just one game.

Meanwhile, Houston has kept up the pressure, winning 11 of their last 12 games as their lead in the AL West has ballooned to five games over Seattle.

Bryce Miller will look to get the M’s on track tonight in game two against the Dodgers.

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

 

The Kraken have locked down one of their core players to a long-term contract.

Seattle signed forward Matty Beniers to a seven-year extension today worth just under $50 million.

Beniers was the franchise’s first-ever draft pick, going No. 2 overall in the 2021 draft.

It comes after the 21-year-old took a slight step back in his second full season in the league this past year.

Beniers’ electric 2023 season earned him the Calder Trophy for NHL Rookie of the Year.

But he scored less goals and assists in 2024 despite getting more time on the ice.

 

The Seattle Storm are getting some reinforcement as the second half of the WNBA season starts back up.

The Storm re-signed veteran forward Gabby Williams today, just weeks after she helped lead France to a silver medal in the Paris Olympics.

It’s her third season with Seattle after she was originally acquired by the Storm in 2022. Williams went on to earn All-Defensive second-team honors as Seattle reached the semifinals that season.

She joins a Storm team that currently sits just two games back from Minnesota for first place in the Western Conference.

 

Michael Penix has played one preseason game for the Atlanta Falcons and that seems to be enough.

Falcons coach Raheem Morris says Penix won’t play in their final preseason game this weekend after sitting out last weekend.

Morris says he’s seen enough of Penix in practice to evaluate his progress.

The former UW Huskies quarterback completed 9 of his 16 passes for 104 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions against the Dolphins in his lone preseason game.

 

Puyallup’s youth baseball team had a rough go in the Little League World Series.
