Orioles’ Two-Inning Burst Turns Mariners’ Night Sideways
Seattle had a quiet first five innings at Camden Yards, then Baltimore broke the game open in a hurry. Pete Alonso started the damage with a sixth-inning homer, and Jackson Holliday delivered the haymaker one inning later: a grand slam that pushed the Orioles from in control to out of reach.
The Mariners lost 7–2, managing only four hits and getting their runs in the eighth on a Julio Rodríguez groundout and a Josh Naylor single. George Kirby took the loss despite keeping the game scoreless through five; the sixth and seventh innings were the turn.
The useful part of the morning: Seattle gets a quick reset today in the series finale, with Bryan Woo scheduled against Kyle Bradish at 4:05 p.m. PT on ESPN, per MLB’s game preview.

Seattle Seahawks
Minicamp Notebook: Offense Installation, Health Updates, Camp On Deck
No game, because June football remains mostly helmets, optimism and controlled optimism. The official Seahawks site led with Day 2 minicamp takeaways, including notes on the developing offense and injury status, plus a separate announcement that registration is open for nine public training-camp practices.
Roster/injury note: Seattle’s recent official transaction was the signing of veteran tackle Bobby Hart for offensive-line depth. The minicamp notes are the best current health check; no new game injury report exists in June.
What to watch next: How Brian Fleury’s offense looks by the time training camp opens, and whether the offensive-line depth chart starts to settle before preseason.

Seattle Mariners
Holliday Slam Drops Seattle in Baltimore
The Mariners’ latest result was last night’s 7–2 loss to the Orioles. Seattle was held to four hits; Cole Young, Josh Naylor, Dominic Canzone and Miles Mastrobuoni had one apiece, while Naylor drove in one and stole a base.
Turning point: Baltimore’s sixth and seventh innings. Alonso’s solo shot opened the scoring, Leody Taveras and Blaze Alexander added run-scoring doubles, and Holliday’s seventh-inning grand slam made it 7–0.
Pitching: Kirby was tagged with the loss; Brandon Young got the win for Baltimore. Today’s scheduled matchup is Bryan Woo vs. Kyle Bradish, and MLB lists ESPN for the 4:05 p.m. PT finale.
Implication: Seattle sits 36–33 after the loss. Not a crisis, but the Mariners need the finale to avoid letting a winnable road series sour into a lost trip.

Oregon Ducks Football
Ducks’ Summer Board: TV Windows, Civil War Future Dates, Roster Watch
No Oregon game since the prior digest; the Ducks are in the long June stretch where schedule logistics and recruiting matter more than box scores. The most useful official update remains Oregon’s announcement of multiple kickoff times and TV assignments for the 2026 season.
Oregon also announced four future football games with Oregon State, keeping the rivalry on the calendar. For a Big Ten program with playoff expectations, those nonconference and rivalry slots matter: they shape travel rhythm, résumé, and the weekly volatility tax.
What to watch next: Summer recruiting commitments, any additional kickoff windows from the Big Ten/TV partners, and fall-camp position battles once practice reports begin.
- Official: 2026 kickoff times/TV announced
- Official: Oregon adds four future games with Oregon State
