Shorewood baseball won against undefeated Arlington 3-1 in a 3A district semifinal on May 7, 2019, at Funko Field at Everett Memorial Stadium.

The Arlington Times reported that,

"With the victory, the T-birds (15-7) secured their fourth state berth in six years and advanced to Saturday’s district title game against Everett."

"For only the fourth time this year, Arlington gave up more than 1 run. They outscored their opponents 163-18 on the season. But they couldn’t figure out lefty Kenji Miller, whose slow fastball and even slower curve ball and changeup kept them off-balance. He struck out seven, walked two and hit a batter, giving up just five hits in the seven innings."
