Raleigh Extends MLB Lead With 33rd Homer in Mariners' Win Over Royals
Cal Raleigh hit his major league–leading 33rd home run, and Randy Arozarena connected twice as the Seattle Mariners beat the Kansas City Royals 6–2 on Monday night. Raleigh led off the seventh inning with a home run against reliever Daniel Lynch IV, prompting chants of 'MVP! MVP!' from the home crowd. Arozarena hit his 100th career home run with a solo shot in the fourth to give Seattle its first run. In the fifth, he broke open the game with a three-run drive, his 10th of the season. It was the first multihomer game for Arozarena since July 20, 2024. George Kirby (2–4) allowed one run and three hits in six innings, striking out five without a walk.

Bobby Witt Jr. had two RBIs for the Royals. Key moment: Kansas City loaded the bases with one out in the eighth against reliever Trent Thornton, who then retired Witt and Maikel Garcia on grounders to limit the damage to one run. Key stats: Raleigh also had a sacrifice fly in the fifth. He leads the majors with 71 RBIs. … Witt has at least one hit in 20 straight road games, two shy of the franchise record.
