Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh homered for the 59th and 60th times on Wednesday against the Colorado, crossing a new threshold as he puts the finishing touches on his historic season. Raleigh is just the fourth player in American League history to clear 60 home runs, and the first who wasn't a member of the New York Yankees at the time.
Indeed, Raleigh is the first player to homer 60 or more times since Yankees slugger Aaron Judge broke the American League and franchise single-season record with 62 home runs in 2022. Prior to Judge, no player had cleared 60 home runs since 2001.
