Mariners Win Sunday

The Seattle Mariners beat the Rangers

Sunday afternoon 5-2. 

The Mariners won the series which is

good. Now they play the A'S for three 

beginning on Monday.  Next weekend 

they play the Cardinals in St. Louis

followed ending April playing the

Twins on the road.

Rob Refsynder led the Mariners off 

with a home run. It was his first hit

this season too. In the second JP 

Crawford hit a two run homer. 

Randy Arozarena hit a two home run

to in the 5th.

Bryan Woo pitch well going seven

innings. He gave up two runs in

the seventh when he began to

getting tired. 

Gabe Speier pitched the 8th followed 

by Andre Munoz who got the save

in the 9th. 

Arozarena along with Luke Raley 

have been the top two hitters on

the season. Go M's 

Mariners End Losing Streak

The Seattle Mariners beat the

Texas Rangers Saturday early 

evening 7-3.

It started in the first inning. JP

Crawford led off with a double 

and Julio drove him in with a 

single. Brendan Donovan was

out and is day to day.

The score stayed the same until

the 4th when Canzone singled 

driving in Raleigh and Arozarena 

who have  been the two best

hitters so far.

George Kirby didn't pitch as

well as he did in two previous 

starts though he recorded the win..

He gave up a home run the sixth.

Matt Brash came in and finished 

the inning.  Luke Raley hit a home

run to increase the lead 4-1 in the

bottom of the sixth.

In the 8th Cole Young drove in

Raley and Canzone. Rivas hit 

a sacrifice fly to score Young.

The bottom of the order has

done a bang job this season.

The Rangers score two runs 

in the top of the 9th. Andre 

Munoz came with two outs

and the bases loaded.

He shut down the door 

Sunday afternoon Bryan Woo 

will pitch for the Mariners. 

Mariners Shut Out

The Mariners were able to beat the

Rangers four straight at home now 

they have lost four straight. 

Final Texas Rangers 5 Mariners 0

The Mariners had the bases loaded

in the first inning with one out but

couldn't bring in any runs.

Logan Gilbert went five innings plus

one out in the sixth giving up two 

runs on seven hits. Not great out

but able to limit the run. The M's 

were able to get to deGrom to go

only four innings with a lot of balls

thrown. They couldn't get to the 

Rangers bullpen either. The M's 

looked out of Sync. 

The Mariners bullpen gave up three 

runs so that didn't help either.

George Kirby will start Saturday 

late afternoon as game is on Fox.

We hope they can get going.

Brendan Donovan had to leave the

game with a hip injury so right now 

he is day to day however we will

see. Go M's. 

Washington State Cougars Qbs and Wide Receivers

Kirby Moore is the Washington State 

Cougars  new head coach. The Cougars

lost several players during the transfer 

portal. They have competition at 

quarterback and wife receiver spots.

Moore a former receiver himself 

and the Cougars known for throwing 

the ball things probably won't 

changing a whole lot.  I am sure

there will be different looks.

Caden Pinnick a transfer from Cal 

Davis is listed number one though

he might not be the starter when 

things end up.  Owen Eshelman 

and Julian Dugger are two other

candidates. 

The Cougars  have competition at

the three wide receiver spots with

seven players. 

Tony Freeman a senior and Daniel 

Blood a senior transfer from Missouri 

who had Moore as a coach are the 

two candidates to be the slot receiver.

The two wideouts listed as first team 

Darrius Clemons and  Tank Hawkins. 

Clemons is a senior transfer from 

Oregon State. He had injuries so not

participating in spring camp yet.

Hawkins is a transfer from Florida.

Backing up Clemons right now are

Branden Ganashamorthy and sophomore 

Jordan Dees a transfer from West Georgia.

Hawkins backup is Ryan McKendry 

a sophomore who transferred from

Los Mendos College in California. 

Looking at tight end senior Jack 

Pedersen a transfer from UCLA.

Next time we will look at the offensive 

line. Go Cougs

Mariners Get Swept In San Diego

The Mariners are now 1-8 on the road 

losing 5-2 to the Padres Thursday 

night. Coming home they play the

Rangers in a three game series. It

will be important to take two out of three

games. Logan Gilbert will start on

Friday. 

Luis Castillo struggled going five

and one-thirds innings. He gave up

all his four runs in the second inning.

He rided the ship not giving up a

run in the remaining time in the game. 

Cole Wilcox came in and got the 

final two outs.  He pitched the 7th

as well and gave up one run. 

The Mariners scored their two runs

in the 6th inning with Cal hitting a 

single driving in Cole Young and

Julio hitting a single to drive in

Donovan. 

The 8th inning the Mariners had two 

runners on base. Connor Joe who had 

pinch hit for Luke Raley earlier had a

nice swing however was caught by the 

left fielder. When he pinch hit earlier he 

had struck out. Also Mitch Garver 

pinch hit for Dominic Canzone. 

This showed the Mariners didn't look

ahead since the 8th inning would 

have  been good to have Raley at

the plate especially when he has

been hot.  Time to move on.

Go M's. 

Washington Huskies Football Wide Receivers

The Washington Huskies currently 

having spring practice.

 Looking at the wide receivers 

Denzel Boston the Huskies top

receiver last year decided to go

the NFL. He might be drafted 

near the end of the first round

or in the second round. Outside

of a very few wide receivers 

don't go in the first round. All

comes down to the player and

whether a team needs a receiver.

It would be nice if he could be

with the Seahawks however

they aren't in need of one. I am

sure they would draft him if he

is the best player available.

Desmen Roebuck who had an

outstanding freshman season 

last year could be the go to guy 

this season. They went to him

quite a bit when Boston missed

a few games. He is listed in the

slot. Right now Kevin Greene Jr.

is his backup.

Christian Moss is projected to be 

one of the side outs. He is transfer

from Kennesaw State and the other

is expected to be Rashid Williams 

a redshirt junior who is in his 4th

year in the program. Last year he

played only in two games with five

catches for 54 yards. 

Chris Lawson and Justice Williams

 expected to be backup however 

they could find their way in for

more playing time. Lawson and Moss

have been slowed by injuries this

spring so incoming freshman Jordan

Clay is showing his stuff so he could 

be the newcomer to get playing time. 

With both Lawson and Moss out he 

is getting valuable time with the first 

unit. 

Next time on Huskies football we will look 

at the offensive line.

We will look  at how the WSU Cougars 

are doing with a new coaching staff

and turnover of players. We will look

at their receiving core. 

.Mariners Lose In Walk Off Fashion

The Mariners had the game until the 

9th inning. They were leading 6-2

then gave up five runs to lose.

They were down to one strike 

to win with two outs. 

Andre Munoz pitched the 9th until

the bases were loaded. There was some

bad luck involved as well. The Mariners 

brought in Jose Ferrer for Munoz.

Not a good idea since he is the 8th

reliever in the bullpen.

Emerson Hancock pitched well again

giving up two runs in six innings on

four hits. The two runs were on a

homer in the sixth inning. He deserved 

the win. Arozarena and Raley continue 

to hit well. Raley had four hits including 

a home run.

Final Padres 7 Mariners 6

Thursday is the final of the series 

with Luis  Castillo stating for the M's.
