- Mariners 4, Tampa Bay 5 [box]: A few thoughts. I'm enjoying the completely random breakouts of two-home run games — see Saunders a couple of days ago, and Alex Liddi on Wednesday night —but when will this ever be enough? Why is it so difficult to win? Do we give Figgins one more month and then pull the plug on him? Lookout Landing has the postgame analysis. Next game: Seattle (11-15) vs. Tampa Bay (17-8), 10:10 p.m. PT, ROOT Sports, 6.5 games back.

- Gonzaga fans need to learn how to pronounce Przemek Karnowski. The seven-foot polish basketball recruit will be suiting up for the Zags this coming fall. Some say he has McDonald's All-American potential — weird, he's Polish and he probably hates McDonald's. I kid. The Slipper Still Fits gives us their thoughts.
