The Bellingham Bells celebrated a successful season opener with a 3-0 shutout of the Kamloops NorthPaws, securing their third win of the season. All runs came in the first inning, with Gavin Long and Alex Fernandes leading the charge. The Bells' pitching was stellar, highlighted by Cal Young's three scoreless innings. Meanwhile, the Mariners faced a disappointing 5-1 loss to the Baltimore Orioles, with George Kirby leaving the game after a line drive struck him in the face. Kirby later reported he was fine, despite the injury.

JP Crawford stood out for the Mariners with a 3-4 hitting performance. In a positive turn, the Storm ended their three-game losing streak by defeating the Dallas Wings 83-77, with Gabby Williams scoring 18 points. They will aim to continue their winning ways against the Phoenix Mercury on Saturday.
