⚾️Mariners: The American League (AL) West-leading Mariners won two of three games against the Houston Astros this weekend. We feared the worst when pitcher Nick Margevicius (pronounced mar-GAV-ih-chiss) — the injured James Paxton’s starting rotation replacement — exited yesterday’s game early. But manager Scott Servais indicated it was just arm fatigue. No more injuries, please.

  • The M’s take on Kyle Seager’s brother and the reigning world champion LA Dodgers tonight at 10:10 p.m. ET/7:10 p.m. PT. Let’s show little bro who’s boss.

🎓🏐Volleyball: The No. 6 UW Huskies survived their second straight five-setter, edging out the No. 11 Louisville Cardinals yesterday to advance to the Elite Eight. Led by Maria Bogomolova’s clutch serving, the Huskies dug deep to come back from a six point deficit in the final set. Never count ’em out.

  • There’s no rest for the weary: the Huskies’ next match is bright and early today at 12 p.m. ET/9 a.m. PT against Pittsburgh (who, as we mentioned, upset No. 3 Minnesota yesterday.) Dubs up.

🎓🥎Softball: No. 6 UW softball followed up with a huge 6–1 win of their own yesterday to take all three conference games against No. 4 Oregon. The star of the show? Outfielder Sami Reynolds, who hit three home runs over the weekend. See ya!
