HOUSTON — Seattle’s Cal Raleigh hit his 57th home run of the season in the Mariners’ 6-4 win over the Houston Astros on Saturday night to pass Ken Griffey Jr. for the single-season franchise record.
The Mariners led 2-0 in the third inning when Raleigh smacked a 95.5 mph sinker from lefty Framber Valdez into the bullpen in right-center field to make it 3-0 and pass the mark Griffey reached in both 1997 and 1998.
Raleigh lifted his right arm in celebration as he rounded second base and raised the trident the Mariners use for their home run celebration skyward after J.P. Crawford handed it to him just before he entered the dugout.
