Weekend Sports Roundup

Losses Leave Ms Road Weary: With the season currently standing at 5-11, the Mariners clearly have some work to do. Facing off against the Kansas City over the weekend, the Ms put up 9 runs to the Royals' 20 in the four-game series. They'll be limping back to Seattle for back-to-back home series against Detroit and Oakland.

Drawing Lessons: The Sounders managed to draw even with the Philadelphia Union in their match-up on Saturday. Behind 1-0 since the 32nd minute, midfielder Alvaro Fernandez knocked in the tying goal in stoppage time to leave Seattle unbeaten in their last four games. Next up: the Sounders head to Colorado for a Friday showdown against the Rapids.

Scrumming It: Seattle's Old Puget Sound Beach Rugby Club survived the elements down in Utah over the weekend, pulling out an 18-17 victory over the Utah Warriors. They too will be in Colorado next weekend, when they take the pitch against the Denver Barbarians Saturday.
