Cal Raleigh Achieves Milestone Despite Struggles in 2026 Season

Cal Raleigh has achieved a notable milestone in the 2026 MLB season, hitting four home runs in just two games for the Seattle Mariners, despite a disappointing overall performance this year.

In a recent game against the Philadelphia Phillies, Raleigh hit three home runs, contributing to a 9-2 victory. He followed this with another home run in his first at-bat the next night, helping the Mariners secure a 4-1 win. This accomplishment places him among a select group of Mariners players who have recorded four home runs in two games or fewer, including legends like Ken Griffey Jr. and Edgar Martinez.

Despite this achievement, Raleigh's season has been challenging, as he has only 18 home runs and a batting average of .169, a significant drop from his record-setting 2025 season. His struggles have coincided with the Mariners' decline in the playoff race, currently standing at 64-69.
