Cal Raleigh clearly understands his assignment as face of the Mariners
Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (29) runs after hitting a solo home run against the Toronto Blue Jays. | Dan Hamilton-Imagn ImagesCal Raleigh isn’t trying to be the face of the Mariners. But he does a great job acting like it every time he leaves the house.
On Feb. 4, he’s in Scottsdale at the WM Phoenix Open Pro-Am and decides the appropriate fit is a Seahawks jersey — not Mariners gear. With Seattle playing in the Super Bowl this Sunday, Feb. 8, it’s a tiny move that says a lot. He knows where he’s from, what city to represent, and he’s not going to pretend that stops when the season ends.
