Sometime back in the early 1970s, I was afforded a unique opportunity.
The thing about Jim Bouton that always amazed me — and warmed my heart — was the pure joy he derived from his masterpiece, “Ball Four.”
Megan Rapinoe left early, her work done for the day. The celebration came early, too, for a U.S. team determined up until the final minute to win this Women’s World Cup on its own terms.
Megan Rapinoe considers Sunday to be the final insult.
If you were the person who yelled it, Tyler O’Neill heard you. It came during this past Mariners homestand in the park he once hoped to call home.
On its face, finding someone to take over the DeSales High School football program doesn’t seem like such a big deal.
From the day Dave Curtis arrived on the DeSales campus in the fall of 1977 until now, the Irish football program has been led by a mere handful of head coaches.
It was headed toward being one of those ill-fated Mariners washout trades that people love to throw in their faces. Daniel Vogelbach could have joined the list of touted Seattle prospects who fizzle and fade and then quietly disappear.
He was essentially considered the “B” side of the deal. Not quite a throw-in, but definitely part of the undercard. A solid starting shortstop? No doubt. A 23-year-old rife with potential? Sure. But an offensive juggernaut bombing 482-foot home runs while sliding into the National League’s s…
I happened to be covering an A’s game against the Red Sox at the Oakland Coliseum one memorable day in the late 1980s.
It’s hard to keep count of all the polarizing ways that people describe Megan Rapinoe.
Bo Porter never got to crack any champagne.
Ethan Paul has had some soaring moments of accomplishment during his four years at Vanderbilt, none greater than helping lead the Commodores to the championship series at the College World Series. The best-of-three showdown with Michigan began Monday in Omaha, Neb., with the Wolverines winning 7-4.
The Mariners have reached the sell-off stage of this step-back voyage, and what a grim ride it’s been so far.
It seems like a particularly fanciful (or delusional) notion right now, based on the current American League standings, and based on the team’s largely depressing history.
On the First Avenue side of T-Mobile Park are giant pitchers of various Mariners.
RENTON — “Let’s talk kickers,’’ gushed Pete Carroll, beginning his final press briefing of the Seahawks offseason on Thursday with unabashed enthusiasm over a mundane topic.
I still have visions of teenaged Kevin Durant in 2007, living large and free in the house he shared with his mother on Mercer Island.
The opening game of the 1999 Women’s World Cup between the United States and Denmark was at the old Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., home to a pair of NFL teams.
When Gonzaga point guard Josh Perkins threw a no-look pass to Zach Collins for an easy dunk, you had to wonder if Washington administrators wondered why they ever agreed to this revival.
RENTON, Wash. — Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny already has logged one year in the NFL.
If Lisa Hyland had her way, she’d set the thermostat at 75 degrees and leave it there for the rest of the week.
I’ve burned with a passion for baseball my entire life, and I don’t see it waning anytime soon.
The most common response when I brought up the subject was “we were just talking about that.”
As a nexus between the lost Mariner season of 2019 and the hoped-for breakthrough in 20xx (we’ll get back to you on that one), today looms as a critical day.
Washington has its state amphibian, the Pacific Chorus Frog; its state bird, the Willow goldfinch; and its state endemic animal, the Olympic Marmot.
When the seniors at DeSales High School walk down the aisle and receive their diplomas on Saturday night, it will culminate Alvaro Campos Ontiveros’ — as well as the classmates he’s been with in the Walla Walla Catholic Schools system since his third-grade year — prep careers.
I hope Bill Buckner’s death Monday makes everyone take just a moment to ponder a few things.
When the three-time defending West Coast League champion Corvallis Knights invade Borleske Stadium on Tuesday for the Sweets’ opener, it’ll mark a milestone for the Walla Walla franchise.
Systematically, the Seahawks have been crossing items off their “to-do” list, until now just one more major task stands between them and a nearly flawless offseason.
In their 42-plus-year history, the Mariners have had multiple layers of badness.
Sue Bird’s first words at the news conference Tuesday to discuss her knee surgery said it all.
Brian Kitamura is pleased and proud, but he’s not satisfied.
The Mariners’ most dominant pitcher of the century is going to be out for the next four to six weeks.
SEATTLE — They’ve fielded teams with league MVPs and multiple All-Stars that went on to win the WNBA title.
For the Seahawks, this has been an offseason of amazing efficiency in the realm of roster construction.
For a guy who has proven to be a winner at every other level, Brian Kitamura didn’t enjoy a lick of team success during his four seasons as a baseball player at Whitman College.
Early in my career as a Union-Bulletin sports writer, I had the opportunity to cover a lot of Whitman College baseball games.
Doug Baldwin went undrafted out of Stanford University, carrying that injustice (which is exactly how he viewed it) like a permanent scar.
If you watched superhero cartoons as a kid, you learned the formula pretty quickly.
One would hardly have known something was amiss with Seattle Storm coach Dan Hughes from watching portions of the team’s first preseason workout Sunday in the bowels of Seattle Pacific University’s gymnasium.
For once, horse racing got it right.
