Mariners' Cal Raleigh Sets Catcher Home Run Record, Chases Judge and Mantle
Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh achieved a historic milestone by hitting his 50th home run, setting a new single-season record for a catcher and surpassing Salvador Perez's mark. Raleigh is now actively pursuing Aaron Judge's American League single-season home run record of 62, needing 13 more homers in the remaining 30 games. Additionally, he is closing in on Mickey Mantle's single-season switch-hitter home run record of 54, a remarkable feat for a catcher playing in a challenging home park.
