Cal Raleigh launches a grand slam to break the AL record for most home runs before the All-Star break and extend the Mariners' lead to 12-3 in the 9th
A kid shagging fly balls in the outfield at the 2025 Home Run Derby robbed Junior Caminero, so Big Dumper had jokes.
Leading MLB with 38 home runs, Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh is in the midst of a historic first half, earning a spot in the Home Run Derby and a future role with Team USA. Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh has had one of the most impressive first halves by a catcher in recent MLB history.
Raleigh will become the second-ever player to switch hit in the Derby ( Adley Rutschman in 2023, lost 2nd round), plus no catcher has ever won the derby. This is year 39 of the event, so odds are against Raleigh despite him being the favorite.
