CHICAGO -- Seattle Mariners slugger Cal Raleigh hit his major league-leading 31st homer when he went deep in the first inning of Sunday's game against the Chicago Cubs.
Raleigh hammered the first pitch of his at-bat against Colin Rea -- a 93.8 mph fastball -- for a two-run shot on a hot afternoon at Wrigley Field. The massive drive to center had an exit velocity of 105 mph.
It was Raleigh's fourth homer of the weekend series and his fifth in his last five games.
