SEATTLE (AP) – Catcher Chris Iannetta has signed a one-year contract with the Seattle Mariners, giving the club additional options behind the plate. The club designated for assignment catcher John Hicks to clear a spot on the 40-man roster for Iannetta. Iannetta spent the past four seasons with the Los Angeles Angels but struggled at the plate in 2015, hitting just .188 with 10 homers and 34 RBIs. The batting average was the lowest of Iannetta’s career.
SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) – Washington State athletic director Bill Moos says quarterback Luke Falk is doing well and might be able to play in Friday’s Apple Cup against Washington. Falk appeared to suffer a head injury and was carried off the field during No. 20 Washington State’s victory over Colorado on Saturday. Coach Mike Leach refuses to discuss injuries, so the extent of Falk’s injury is not clear.
