Here is the #Seahawks Coby Braynt interception that sealed the deal:
The Steel City went full metal this Sunday. Before the Steelers kicked off their home opener against the Seahawks, none other than Iron Maiden frontman Bruce Dickinson stepped up to the mic and delivered a roaring rendition of
“The Star-Spangled Banner.” Acrisure Stadium hasn’t heard a national anthem quite like that—what a way to start a game in Pittsburgh.

We're now 23-6 at T-Mobile Park since the All-Star Break – the BEST home record in baseball during the second half. And we need your energy to keep it going during our final homestand of the regular season next week!
The finest fielders in 2025 include some familiar faces -- but also some new defensive stars. We polled MLB.com's experts, and here are our picks to take home Gold Glove Awards.
On a night the Seattle Mariners didn’t get much outside help, they at least helped themselves.
Leo Rivas hit a walkoff, two-run home run the 13th inning to lift the Mariners past the St. Louis Cardinals 4-2 Wednesday night. With the win, Seattle kept pace with the Houston Astros and Texas Rangers in the American League playoff race.
The home run came in Rivas’ first at-bat after pinch-running in the 11th inning. It was just his second career home run.
Seattle’s bullpen came up big for a second straight night as it covered 8 1/3 innings and allowed only one unearned run. Emerson Hancock pitched two scoreless innings to earn his first career win as a reliever.
Seattle’s win coincided with the Astros beating the Blue Jays 3-2 on Yanier Diaz’s solo home run in the ninth inning and the Rangers beating Milwaukee 6-3 to finish off a three-game sweep of the MLB-leading Brewers. At 77-68, the Mariners are one game back of Houston for first place in the AL West and 1 1/2 games ahead
of Texas for the final wild card berth.
On Tuesday night, Rodríguez pulled off one of his most ridiculous catches yet. And yes, you must see it.
Here’s the wrinkle: You also need to watch Mariners first baseman Josh Naylor in the highlight. Because as ridiculous as Rodríguez’s catch was, Naylor was fully expecting it when the ball left St. Louis Cardinals designated hitter Ivan Herrera’s bat for deep right-center field. Like, to a borderline hilarious level.

The serpent in the garden tempting Adam and Eve with the fruit
A lush garden scene under the glow of a soft sunlight. In it, a Caucasian man and woman referred to as Adam and Eve are present. They are looking at a lustrous green serpent entwined around a fruit-bearing tree. The serpent is extending a shiny red fruit towards them, seemingly offering it. These figures should be
depicted with attention to detail, capturing the expressiveness and traditional clothing often characteristic of the Pre-Raphaelite art movement. All elements of the image should promote a devotional interpretation of the scene, soliciting feelings of respect towards the Christian faith.
Adam hiding from God in garden of Eden after the fall
Specifically, Adam, a Middle-Eastern man, is seen hiding in the lush, verdant expanse of the garden of Eden, after the event known as 'The Fall'. His body language should convey feelings of regret, fear, and uncertainty. God, represented as an intense ethereal presence, is searching the garden, indicative of the Biblical
narrative. Render this scene with a warm, fluid aesthetic consistent with watercolor paintings. This scene should be depicted in a respectful and devoted tone without any text or words.
That would prove to be important because the next batter, Jorge Polanco, delivered this single to break the game open. That would be the blow knocking Martin out of the game, but the Mariners were able to add still another run, small-balling around Polanco thanks to a productive groundout from Cole Young.
But Naylor wasn’t done yet. The White Sox sent out lefty Bryan Hudson in the seventh to turn Cal Raleigh around and also face Naylor, and Julio and Naylor teamed up to make them pay for that decision. Julio started with a one-out single, a sharply-hit line drive, and Naylor turned on a sweeper that wound up middle-middle
for his first home run at T-Mobile Park, putting tonight’s game safely out of reach despite Jackson Kowar giving up two solo shots in the ninth in his first game in about a week.
It was a fun win featuring contributions from Seattle’s newest trade deadline acquisitions, but also a free agent signing (Polanco), home grown talents (Woo, Young, Julio), and another trade deadline acquisition from a “soft sell” year in Canzone, who has been a slower burn developmentally but is starting to round into his own.

Self Portrait by Leonardo Da Vinci
Famous Paintings With Secret Symbols Hidden in Plain Sight
Leonardo da Vinci – The Last Supper
"The Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci is not just a biblical scene—it's a puzzle box of symbols that has fascinated viewers for centuries. Many researchers have pointed out how the hands of the apostles form mysterious gestures, and the
grouping of figures seems to be more than mere composition.
Hidden in the arrangement are references to the number three, a nod to the Holy Trinity, which repeats in the windows and the placement of the figures. Some believe that da Vinci embedded numerology throughout the painting, tying the number of
figures and their placement to key biblical moments.
There’s even a theory that the image contains a hidden musical score, if the hands and loaves of bread are read as musical notes on a staff. The dramatic expressions and subtle clues invite endless debate, with some suggesting that the work encodes
secret knowledge about faith, betrayal, or even da Vinci’s own beliefs.
The sense of balance and movement in the painting keeps viewers circling back for another look, hunting for new meanings. This iconic masterpiece remains a source of intrigue for both art lovers and conspiracy theorists alike.
Sandro Botticelli – Primavera
Sandro Botticelli’s "Primavera" explodes with mythological figures, but beneath its beauty lies a web of coded messages. Art scholars have identified a rich tapestry of astrological references, with the positioning of Mercury, Venus, and the
Three Graces thought to reflect the influence of celestial bodies on human love and desire.
The painting is a visual representation of Neoplatonic philosophy, which links earthly beauty to divine love, making each figure’s pose and gesture a potential clue. Flowers and plants are not just decorative; over 500 species are shown with painstaking
accuracy, each symbolizing different virtues or myths.
The interplay between the characters hints at deeper stories, such as Zephyrus’s pursuit of Chloris and her transformation. Some experts suggest that the painting was intended as a coded message to the Medici family, tying their lineage to mythic
greatness.
Botticelli’s use of light and flowing lines creates a dreamlike atmosphere, drawing the viewer into a world where meaning is layered and elusive. With so many layers, "Primavera" continues to spark debate about what truths it may be hiding in plain sight.
Hans Holbein – The Ambassadors
Hans Holbein’s "The Ambassadors" is a double portrait loaded with objects that symbolize knowledge, wealth, and worldly achievement, but the real shock comes from the bizarre stretched skull at the bottom. This skull is painted in
anamorphosis, a special technique that makes the image only appear normal when viewed from a sharp angle—reminding viewers of their own mortality.
Surrounding the ambassadors are globes, books, and scientific instruments, each meticulously rendered to reflect the intellectual climate of the Renaissance. The inclusion of a broken string on the lute hints at discord and the imperfection of life, while the
crucifix peeking from behind the curtain underscores spiritual salvation.
The contrast between the vibrant, detailed objects and the ghostly skull creates a tension that’s both unsettling and thought-provoking. Holbein forces the viewer to confront the fleeting nature of achievement and the certainty of death.
This painting is a powerful reminder that, no matter how impressive our accomplishments, mortality lingers just out of sight.
Michelangelo – The Creation of Adam
Michelangelo’s "The Creation of Adam," painted on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, is instantly recognizable, but few notice the brain-shaped outline around God. In 1990, a physician named Frank Lynn Meshberger observed that the shape
matches the anatomy of a human brain, down to the folds and stem.
This clever detail may symbolize the divine gift of intelligence, suggesting that God not only gave Adam life but also the capacity for thought. The space between God’s and Adam’s fingertips has been interpreted as a metaphor for the spark of
consciousness.
Art historians have debated whether Michelangelo, who studied anatomy extensively, intended to hide this message as a celebration of human intellect. The subtle use of color and shadow emphasizes the dramatic separation and connection between
mortal and divine.
This painting serves as both a religious icon and a meditation on the origins of human understanding. Michelangelo’s genius lies in layering such profound symbolism into a single gesture, leaving viewers with more questions than answers.
Jan van Eyck – Arnolfini Portrait
Jan van Eyck’s "Arnolfini Portrait" is a master class in subtle symbolism, with every detail chosen for its meaning. In the circular mirror at the painting’s center, two tiny figures can be seen—likely the artist himself and a witness—suggesting
that what we see is not the whole story.
The small dog at the couple’s feet represents fidelity, while the lush green dress and elaborate chandelier hint at wealth and prosperity. The single lit candle in the chandelier has been interpreted as a symbol of God’s presence or the sanctity of marriage.
Even the fruit on the windowsill and the position of the figures have generated theories about legal contracts and social status. The Latin inscription above the mirror, "Jan van Eyck was here," adds a playful layer, acknowledging the artist’s role as both
observer and creator.
The painting’s meticulous realism draws viewers into a world where nothing is accidental. Every object becomes a clue, inviting speculation about what is being witnessed.
Hieronymus Bosch – The Garden of Earthly Delights
Hieronymus Bosch’s "The Garden of Earthly Delights" is a wild, dreamlike triptych packed with bizarre creatures, strange inventions, and cryptic moral lessons. The central panel, filled with nude figures frolicking in a fantastical landscape, is often
interpreted as a warning against the dangers of earthly pleasures.
One of the most surprising discoveries is the musical notation etched onto a sinner’s exposed backside in the right panel, which, when played, produces an eerie melody. Art historians believe Bosch used these surreal images to lampoon human folly and
warn about the consequences of vice.
The left panel depicts paradise, while the right shows the horrors of hell, creating a stark moral contrast. Each tiny detail—from oversized birds to hybrid beasts—seems to carry a hidden message or cautionary tale.
The painting’s chaotic energy and intricate symbolism have inspired countless interpretations, from religious allegory to proto-surrealism. Viewers are left to puzzle over its meaning, as new secrets are uncovered even today.
Diego Velázquez – Las Meninas
"Las Meninas" by Diego Velázquez is a painting that turns the viewer into a participant in the royal court of Spain. The scene shows the young princess, Infanta Margarita, surrounded by her entourage, but the true mystery lies in the
background and the act of painting itself.
Velázquez includes himself in the composition, paintbrush in hand, blurring the lines between artist, subject, and observer. The presence of a mirror reflecting the king and queen adds another layer, suggesting that the real subject might be the royal
couple—or even the act of observation.
The subtle placement of figures creates a sense of movement and hierarchy, hinting at the complex social dynamics of the court. Scholars have debated whether the painting is a statement about the power of art, the role of the artist, or the nature of
reality itself.
Velázquez’s clever use of space and symbolism invites viewers to question what is real and what is illusion. The painting remains a fascinating study in perspective and perception.
Raphael – The School of Athens
Raphael’s "The School of Athens" is a grand tribute to philosophy, gathering the greatest thinkers of the ancient world under one roof. Each figure is carefully chosen to represent a branch of knowledge, with Plato and Aristotle at the center, their
gestures symbolizing the divide between idealism and empiricism.
Raphael added a personal touch by including contemporary artists of his time, such as Leonardo da Vinci as Plato and Michelangelo as Heraclitus. In a clever twist, Raphael even painted himself into the scene, standing to the edge, watching the gathering
unfold.
The architectural setting echoes classical ideals, reinforcing the link between art, science, and philosophy. The painting’s harmony and order reflect the Renaissance belief in the unity of human knowledge.
This blend of historical and personal references makes "The School of Athens" a visual manifesto for the pursuit of wisdom. Every figure and gesture becomes a clue to the artist’s broader message about learning and creativity.
Leonardo da Vinci – Mona Lisa
The "Mona Lisa" is shrouded in mystery, not just because of her enigmatic smile but also due to the hidden secrets waiting to be discovered. In 2010, experts using high-resolution imaging found tiny letters and numbers painted in her eyes—so
small they are invisible to the naked eye.
Some art historians believe these could be Leonardo’s initials or coded references to people and places significant to him. Others speculate that the landscape behind her holds secret maps or symbols, feeding endless conspiracy theories.
The faint smile and the way her eyes seem to follow the viewer add to the sense that she knows more than she reveals. The painting’s surface is layered with glazes and subtle shifts in color, techniques that Leonardo perfected to create lifelike depth.
With every new technological advance, new details are uncovered, but the full meaning of these symbols remains elusive. The Mona Lisa remains a puzzle that draws in all who gaze upon her.
Pieter Bruegel the Elder – Netherlandish Proverbs
Pieter Bruegel the Elder’s "Netherlandish Proverbs" is a chaotic and hilarious panorama of human folly, where more than 100 idioms are brought to life. Each scene literalizes a common saying, like "banging your head against a brick wall" or
"swimming against the current," turning the painting into a visual encyclopedia of wisdom (and foolishness).
Bruegel’s genius lies in his ability to weave these proverbs into a single, bustling village scene, with every character acting out a moral lesson. The work is both humorous and biting, poking fun at the irrational side of human nature.
Researchers have mapped out the idioms, showing just how densely packed the composition is with meaning. The painting invites viewers to hunt for familiar sayings and discover new ones, creating an interactive experience centuries before the idea of
"Easter eggs" in art.
The endless layers of satire and social commentary keep viewers coming back, always finding something they missed before. This painting stands as proof that human behavior, in all its absurdity, hasn’t changed much over the centuries.
Cal Raleigh passes Ken Griffey Jr. for the most HR hit by a Mariner before the break!
At a drum clinic in England, Shane Hawkins, the son of late Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins, revealed that his dad’s favorite Foos song to play was actually the track “Low,” not the tune “Aurora,” as commonly suggested.
Shane took part in a drum clinic at The Dead Famous, a cocktail bar in Newquay, England, this past Thursday (May 29th). From behind the kit, he told the crowd, “People say that song ‘Aurora’ was his favorite to play, but that’s a lie.”
He went on to say that Taylor’s true favorite Foo Fighters song to perform was “Low” from 2002’s One by One, but that frontman Dave Grohl didn’t often include it in the setlist. After that introduction, Shane played the drum parts to “Low” like an absolute
beast, as seen in the TikTok clip below.
When Foo Fighters began touring a year or so after Taylor’s passing, Grohl would dedicate “Aurora” to Taylor Hawkins at each show, suggesting that it was the late drummer’s favorite song. But, as Shane pointed out, it may not have necessarily been
Meanwhile, Shane continues to be among those rumored as the next drummer for Foo Fighters, who surprisingly let go of Josh Freese last month. As of yet, the band hasn’t made any official announcements regarding a new drummer.

FREDDIE MERCURY QUEEN
Cal Raleigh has his THIRD consecutive 30-HR season! It's June 21st
Raleigh's home run was his 30th of the season, the most before the All-Star break by a switch-hitter. His bomb gave him his third straight season with at least 30 home runs. The big difference between this year on the last two? The 28-year-old reached the mark months sooner than he ever has before.
3 Seattle Mariners who must make 2025 All-Star Team
Voting for the MLB All-Star Game is underway and Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh is running away with a spot. Will any teammates join him?
players in it, including Cal Raleigh behind the plate. With a league-leading 27 home runs, Raleigh is a near-lock to make the team. Who else could join him in Atlanta?
Cal Raleigh should be a unanimous selection
Rick Scuteri-Imagn Images
The Mariners struggled on offense last year, costing them a spot in the playoffs. This year, they have a higher batting average and OPS as a team, but the biggest difference is Cal Raleigh. The catcher has 27 homers after a grand slam on Tuesday against
the Red Sox. His OPS is over 200 points above last year's total, and his bWAR is closing in on his 2024 total. While he has never been an All-Star before, Raleigh should comfortably be the American League starting catcher.
Raleigh is outshining every American League catcher offensively, just a year after winning the Gold Glove at the position. The Mariners' pitching has been solid again this year, and could be sending All-Stars to Atlanta, too. Raleigh deserves some credit for
that, as well, as the everyday catcher. With very little competition, this should be a no-brainer.
Andres Muñoz has been dominant for the Mariners
The Mariners have a great starting rotation that gets a lot of attention, but they may also have the best closer in baseball. Andres Muñoz has a 1.26 ERA with 18 saves in 22 opportunities, dominating hitters all over the American League. He was an All-
Star last year, when his numbers were not nearly as good. He had 15 saves with a 1.41 ERA and a 1.000 WHIP. With a struggling team, he has not gotten many opportunities lately. But when he does, he almost always takes advantage.
Muñoz was supposed to get big competition for the AL All-Star closer role this year from the Yankees' new addition Devin Williams. But Williams was dreadful to start the year, losing his role to Luke Weaver. And then, Weaver got hurt, ending his All-Star
bid. Will Vest from the Tigers could get a nod, but not at the cost of Muñoz, who has done enough to retain his bid.
Luis Castillo should get another All-Star bid
Of the Mariners' starting pitchers, the elder statesman has been the best so far. Castillo is 4-5 with a 3.38 ERA, even after three shaky starts in a row. Outside of Logan Gilbert, who has only made seven starts due to an injury, those are the best numbers
on the squad. Castillo has made three All-Star appearances in his career, including one in his first full season in Seattle. This would be his second in the AL to match his two with Cincinnati.
The Mariners are built on starting pitching, and Castillo was a big addition to their team in 2022. With so many young star pitchers in their rotation, Castillo is leaned on to be the steady veteran and lead the group. He fits that role perfectly, and his
numbers show that as well. And at just 32 years old, he still has some prime years ahead of him.
Other potential Mariners All-Star bids
The Mariners have two outfielders who could cut through a crowded field to make the All-Star Game. Julio Rodriguez and Randy Arozarena have both been solid this year, with OPS+ numbers of 115 and 119, respectively. Rodriguez has played a solid
JP Crawford should also be considered among the shortstops in the American League. Gunnar Henderson has had a rough go, Anthony Volpe's offensive numbers are not strong enough, and Corey Seager has been hurt. But Zach Neto, Jeremy Pena, and
Bobby Witt Jr create a tough group for Crawford to break through. He has an .824 OPS with 29 RBIs.
