If you only watch one highlight from Monday, make it Cal Raleigh going completely off in Seattle. The Mariners catcher — nicknamed "Big Dumper" — bashed THREE home runs and drove in four runs, scored three times, and even drew a walk for good measure. The Phillies never had a chance. Final score: Mariners 9, Phillies 2.
Raleigh finished a jaw-dropping 3-for-3 with all three of his hits clearing the fence. That's the kind of game you brag about to your friends for the rest of the school year. For the Mariners (63-69), who are sitting 3 games back in the AL West, this was exactly the energy boost they needed. Meanwhile, the Phillies (73-59) slipped a little in the NL East chase — they'll want that one back!
Three homers in a single game is one of the rarest things in baseball, Jacob. It puts Raleigh in elite company and makes the AL West race even more exciting heading into the final stretch of the regular season. Keep an eye on Seattle — they're not done yet!
Monday was a massive day of baseball with 10 games on the board! In addition to Raleigh's monster outing, the Cubs' Kevin Gausman tossed a gem — 7 shutout innings against the Diamondbacks (7 wins for Chicago, 0 for Arizona). The Nationals also went OFF on the Rockies, 13–3, behind D. Lile's ridiculous 3-5 line: a homer, a double, five RBIs, two runs, and a stolen base. The Rangers stomped the White Sox 11–2 behind Corey Seager's three-hit, three-RBI night. And the Pirates survived 12 innings to edge the Padres 3–2!
