Raleigh's Homer Moves Mariners Closer

Cole Young’s Hometown Heroics

Cole Young, the Pittsburgh-born Mariners rookie, delivered a career-defining moment with a game-winning home run at PNC Park — in front of family, friends, and his high school coach — sealing a 2-1 victory over the Pirates. It was his first time playing at the ballpark, and the Mariners’ offense powered through on just two homers, including one from Cal Raleigh. Despite early struggles for pitcher George Kirby and shaky defense, Kirby turned it around with a dominant sweeper pitch, striking out five. The bullpen locked it down with José Ferrer, Eduard Bazardo, and Andrés Muñoz striking out the side in the ninth. Young, a consistent everyday player despite injury woes, turned a surreal at-bat into a fairy-tale moment — a fitting reward for his grit and loyalty.

Raleigh Surpasses Davis, Rewriting Mariners History

Cal Raleigh just smashed his 161st home run as a Mariner, vaulting past Alvin Davis for seventh on Seattle’s all-time list — a milestone that doesn’t just tweak stats, it rewrites legacy. Davis, the team’s first true superstar, paved the way before Griffey. Raleigh, meanwhile, is doing it all — catching, switch-hitting, and thriving amid the Mariners’ chaos — now standing shoulder-to-shoulder with legends like Griffey, Martinez, and Buhner. Fans may cling to the past, but Raleigh’s present performance is undeniable. This isn’t just a number — it’s proof he’s building a career in real time. And he’s not alone: Julio Rodríguez is already flirting with the top ten. Seattle’s current core isn’t just playing baseball — they’re rewriting the franchise’s history, right before our eyes.

Raleigh's Homer Moves Mariners Closer

Cal Raleigh crushed his first homer since returning from injury, blasting a solo shot to pull Seattle within one run and inching his career total to 161 — good enough for seventh all-time in Mariners history. Despite a rough season marked by an oblique injury and a .162 batting average, Raleigh’s power still shines, especially against the Pirates. The Mariners remain hot favorites in the AL West, leading by 1.5 games, proving their depth even as key players battle slumps or injuries. Ahead, the team unveils its pitching rotation for the Guardians series, including a planned “piggyback” start. Meanwhile, Randy Arozarena re-enters the lineup, while Dominic Canzone’s hamstring recovery remains in progress. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Gilbert Joins Piggyback Pitching Experiment

The Mariners are doubling down on their piggyback pitching strategy, with recent AL Player of the Week Logan Gilbert set to share the mound with Emerson Hancock in his next start. Despite initial skepticism, Gilbert’s stellar recent performances and low ERA have made the plan work — and the whole team’s on board, with clear communication and no complaints. Gilbert even said the only questions were logistical, like rest days — once those were sorted, everyone was ready to pitch when called. This unified, adaptive approach is proving to be a winning formula. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Raleigh Returns, Mariners Gain Power

Cal Raleigh’s return to the Mariners lineup after injury rehab is a major boost for Seattle’s offense, as the power-hitting catcher shows flashes of his MVP-caliber form with a solo homer and renewed presence. Despite earlier struggles and concerns, veteran voices like Dan Wilson saw potential in his time off. With the team short-handed and offense in need, Raleigh’s comeback—officially set for the Orioles series—signals hope for consistency and could spark a turnaround for the Mariners.
