Cal Raleigh Reflects on Historic 40-Homer Season with Mariners

Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh drilled his 40th home run of the season Saturday night, making him the first player in MLB to reach this mark and the seventh catcher in major league history to achieve a 40-homer season. Raleigh's tiebreaking 416-foot blast contributed to a valuable 7-2 victory for the Mariners, and he called the milestone 'very cool' and 'a cool moment.' The slugger also tied Ken Griffey Jr. for the most homers in Seattle history through 105 games of a season, solidifying his historic performance despite a slight slowdown in July.
