M's put Jorge Polanco on paternity list, recall Leo Rivas
Rivas, 27, made his major league debut last year with Seattle and amassed a .233 batting average with eight RBIs and three stolen bases in 43 games. He opened this season with two home runs and four RBIs in three games for Tacoma.
Polanco, 31, has enjoyed a quick start to the 2025 season as he carries four-game hitting streak into his paternity-list stay.
The switch hitter cracked a go-ahead two-run homer in the eighth inning on Opening Day, and he owns a .400/.400/.600 slash line through 16 plate appearances as the Mariners' primary third baseman.
Miles Mastrobuoni started at third base and batted eighth for Seattle on Tuesday night against the visiting Detroit Tigers. Mastrobuoni entered the game 1-for-1 on the season, as he had a pinch single against the Athletics on Friday.

Rangers squirt past Mariners in 11 innings
August 3 - Wyatt Langford singled home the go-ahead run in the 11th inning as the Texas Rangers defeated the host Seattle Mariners 6-4 on Saturday afternoon. Kyle Higashioka homered and drove in three runs for the Rangers, who won for the first time in their past nine games at T-Mobile Park and pulled within a game of Seattle for both second place in the American League West and the AL's third and final wild-card spot. Langford's soft liner to right field leading off the 11th scored Adolis Garcia from second base. Ezequiel Duran followed with a broken-bat single to right off Casey Legumina (4-6) to give Texas a two-run lead. Rangers reliever Luis Curvelo (1-0), making his second major-league appearance, pitched 1 1/3 innings for the victory. The Rangers scored twice in the top of the 10th off Matt Brash to take a 4-2 lead. Higashioka blooped a leadoff single to center to score pinch-runner Duran. A bloop to right by Alejandro Osuna and a sacrifice bunt by Josh Smith put runners at second and third and an intentional walk to Corey Seager loaded the bases. Marcus Semien grounded out to short on a slow roller to score Higashioka. The Mariners tied it in the bottom of the inning on Randy Arozarena's leadoff blast into the second deck in left field. The Rangers took a 2-0 lead in the third inning. Rowdy Tellez led off with an infield single and Higashioka deposited a 2-2 fastball from Luis Castillo into Texas' bullpen in left field. Merrill Kelly, making his Rangers debut after being acquired from Arizona at the trade deadline, allowed just one hit through the first five innings - an infield single by rookie Cole Young with two outs in the third. The Mariners tied the score in the sixth with the help of a mental mistake by Kelly. J.P. Crawford, led off with a ground-rule double into the right-field corner. With one out, Arozarena lined a single to center, sending Crawford to third. Trying to keep Arozarena from stealing second, Kelly committed a balk by disengaging from the pitching rubber three times. That allowed Crawford to trot home and Arozarena to advance. With two outs, Julio Rodriguez lined a double to right to tie the score. Kelly allowed two runs on four hits in 5 2/3 innings, with no walks and six strikeouts. Castillo gave up two runs on four hits in 4 1/3 innings. He walked one and fanned four. --Field Level Media

Sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson arrested on domestic violence offense at airport
Reigning 100m world champion Sha'Carri Richardson was arrested last weekend for allegedly assaulting her boyfriend at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Richardson was arrested Sunday on a fourth-degree domestic violence offense, according to a police report obtained by the Associated Press. On Thursday, she ran in the opening round of the women's 100m at US track and field championships in Eugene, Oregon. She has an automatic bye to the world championships in September in Tokyo as the defending champion. The 25-year-old Richardson was booked into the South Correctional Entity (SCORE) in Des Moines, Washington, at 6.54pm last Sunday and released Monday at 1.13pm. 'USATF is aware of the reports and is not commenting on this matter,' USA Track and Field said in a statement. Richardson's agent did not immediately reply to an email request for comment. The police report said an officer at the airport was notified by a Transportation Security Administration supervisor of a disturbance between Richardson and her boyfriend, sprinter Christian Coleman. The officer reviewed camera footage and observed Richardson reach out with her left arm and grab Coleman's backpack and yank it away. Richardson then appeared to get in Coleman's way with Coleman trying to step around her. Coleman was shoved into a wall. The report later said Richardson appeared to throw an item at Coleman, which the TSA indicated may have been headphones. In the police report, the officer said: 'I was told Coleman did not want to participate any further in the investigation and declined to be a victim.' Richardson won the 100 at the 2023 world championships in Budapest and finished with the silver at the Paris Games last summer. She also helped the 4x100 relay to an Olympic gold. She had a positive marijuana test at the 2021 U.S. Olympic trials and didn't compete at the Tokyo Olympics.
