Family of Microsoft exec Brad Smith joins Mariners ownership​


Microsoft vice chair and president Brad Smith and wife Kathy Surace-Smith have purchased a stake in the Maariners, becoming just the third additions to the team's ownership group since 1992. The team announced the addition of the Smiths to the Mariners Partnership Group on Wednesday. They are the first additions to the ownership structure since Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr. joined in 2021. "Since this group formed in 1992, it has always been a priority to identify partners who both love baseball and are passionate about public service," Mariners chairman John Stanton said in a statement. "Adding Kathy and Brad to our partnership strengthens our commitment to the Mariners mission of winning championships, creating unforgettable experiences and serving our communities." Smith has spent more than 30 years working for Microsoft and has held the role of vice chair and president for nearly nine years. Surace-Smith is the senior vice president of human resources and legal affairs at NanoString Technologies Inc.

ohtani's ex-interpreter ippei mizuhara to plead guilty to bank, tax fraud
Mizuhara, 39, who had been Ohtani's longtime interpreter, is expected to enter his guilty plea in the coming weeks. His arraignment is scheduled for Tuesday in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. The plea agreement says Mizuhara will be required to pay full restitution, or $16,975,010, to Ohtani.

**********
Mizuhara began placing bets with an illegal bookmaker in September 2021, and as his losses quickly mounted, he began to exploit his access to Ohtani's financial accounts to pay off his debts.
 
ippei mizuhara wired shohei ohtani's money to real housewives' star
Ryan Boyajian, a current cast member of Bravo's reality TV series "The Real Housewives of Orange County," is the bookmaker's associate to whom Ippei Mizuhara wired money to pay his gambling debts, multiple sources with knowledge of the investigation told ESPN.

*********
That associate is Boyajian, who used the account with Bowyer for their real estate projects, according to the sources. Boyajian, 47, and Bowyer, 49, have been close friends and business associates for nearly 20 years. When Bowyer declared bankruptcy in 2011, court records show Boyajian loaned him $245,000.

MLB says robot home plate umpires unlikely for 2025​


Major League Baseball says robot home plate umpires are unlikely for 2025. MLB has been experimenting with the automated ball-strike system in minor leagues since 2019. It is being used at all Triple-A parks this year for the second straight season, the robot alone for the first three games of each series and a human with a challenge system in the final three. "There's a growing consensus in large part based on what we're hearing from players that the challenge form should be the form of ABS if and when we bring it to the big leagues, at least as a starting point," Manfred said. "I think that's a good decision."

new york mets retire darryl strawberry's no. 18
Strawberry was an eight-time All-Star, including seven during his time with the Mets from 1983 to '90. He hit .259 with 335 homers, 1,000 RBIs and 221 stolen bases in 17 seasons. Strawberry recalled he wore No. 8 in high school, but it was unavailable when he arrived in New York in 1983 because of Ronn Reynolds. Strawberry wanted to keep an 8, so that's why he picked 18.
