Mariners outfielder Luke Raley begins his rehab assignment with Triple-A Tacoma, having been sidelined since April 28 due to an oblique strain. General Manager Justin Hollander confirmed that Raley would need at least a week of rehabilitation before rejoining the Mariners. The team, struggling with a 1-8 record over their last three series, currently trails the Astros by four games and is tied with the LA Angels at one game under . 500. They will host the Cleveland Guardians for a three-game series starting tomorrow.

Meanwhile, the Seattle Storm ended the Minnesota Lynx's undefeated season with a 94-84 victory, marking the Lynx's first loss this year. Nneka Ogwumike contributed significantly with 21 points and 10 rebounds, while Erica Wheeler added 20 points and 9 assists. The Storm have now won three consecutive games and will face the Golden State Valkyries in their inaugural matchup this weekend. This victory for the Storm highlights their competitive edge in the league as they aim for playoff contention.
