Northwest Sports Update Mariners seek seventh-straight series win, Seahawks retain key O-lineman, new Pac-12 TV deal and more

Bellingham, WASports

The Mariners aim for their seventh consecutive series win tonight against the struggling LA Angels, who have lost 10 of their last 13 games. With 12 wins in their last 16 games, the Mariners sit atop the AL West. Bryce Miller, looking to recover from a poor performance against the Red Sox, will start the game at T-Mobile Park. The Mariners face a setback as utility player Dylan Moore is placed on the 10-day injured list due to right hip inflammation. Samad Taylor, recently called up from Triple-A Tacoma, will take his place on the roster.

Moore boasts an impressive . 286 batting average with six home runs this season, recently earning American League Player of the Week honors. His versatility, having played nearly every position this season, will be missed. The Mariners hope to maintain their momentum despite these challenges.
